For Brokers
Give clients a property-specific appeal-odds check before they pay anyone.
Free for you. Give buyers, sellers, and past clients a co-branded covered-county check that shows modeled odds, possible savings, and fee options before they hire appeal help or ignore the bill.

How it works
1
Send your client your broker link
Share a link like censum.tax/b/your-name. They look up their home in a live Censum county in 10 seconds. Free. No signup.
2
They see their modeled appeal odds
Modeled odds, estimated annual tax impact, the township deadline, and a clear next step.
3
Censum assigns the price
The result sets the path, not the client. If the signal is useful: a low upfront flat fee, or a fixed $149 only after a verified reduction. Concierge optional (+$29). You handed them the tool.

What your client pays
Free lookup first. Two clean ways to pay after.
Your client starts with the free check. Censum assigns the result band, then shows low upfront flat-fee pricing or the fixed $149 no-risk Contingent Plan when eligible. Concierge and prior-year review stay optional.
No-risk Contingent Plan
$0 due until we win
$149
fixed fee, only after a verified qualifying reduction
No percentage fee, no attorney-style cut, and no charge if there is no qualifying reduction.
Optional add-on
Concierge
+$29
Workflow support, reminders, and guided next steps after the odds result.
Optional add-on
Exemption + Prior-Year Checkup
+$19
Checks for missed homestead and senior exemptions plus prior-year assessment issues.
They keep 100% of tax savings. You keep the referral relationship.
Censum provides property-tax analytics and appeal evidence, not legal or tax advice. Independent service. Not affiliated with any county, assessor, board of review, appraisal district, or government office. No appeal outcome or tax savings are guaranteed. Optional Concierge, where available, includes workflow support after the required authorization form is signed. Board of Review filing is separate and may require customer or attorney action.
