Mark and Tim Cantrell, along with Bobby McCulloch, founded Cantrell McCulloch, Inc. (CMI) in December 2000. They had become disenchanted with the level of investigation and service provided by traditional tax consulting firms. In their opinion, most firms were not thorough enough in their evaluation, or persistent enough in their petitioning efforts on behalf of their clients. From the beginning, CMI succeeded in reducing property taxes for clients that had unsatisfactory results using larger, more established firms. Even clients that appeared to have low assessments found that CMI often reduced valuations significantly in the first year of representation. Today, many well known and respected companies trust CMI with their property tax issues. In 2009, CMI represented over $7.9 billion in property assessments resulting in actual tax savings to our clients of over $28 million.

By utilizing all of CMI’s resources, our clients gain the benefit of a totally different motivational philosophy. CMI’s employees compensation is directly related to the results they generate. Convincing the appraiser to reduce your assessment is not easy, and is becoming more challenging each year. We have gained the respect of the appraisal district property appraisers because we are easy to work with, and we provide them with evidence that is substantiated, clear, concise and compelling. With backgrounds that include designations of CPA, CMI, MAI, along with longtime multifamily owner-operators, seasoned real estate brokers, real estate management and former appraisal district employee, Cantrell McCulloch understands the varying aspects that determine the optimum approach to take when negotiating with the appraisal district. We have the knowledge, experience and qualifications to produce the evidence and communicate it successfully.
