DALLAS, Oct. 21, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Estes & Banks Tax Advisory, a Dallas-based firm, has launched a specialized commercial property tax advisory service for Texas property owners. The new firm, which operates independently from the affiliated law firm Estes & Banks, P.C., aims to ensure that Texas commercial property owners do not overpay on their property taxes.
Josh Estes and Spencer Banks, shareholders of Estes & Banks, P.C., founded Estes & Banks Tax Advisory. With decades of experience in Texas commercial and industrial property tax matters, the two have managed cases that have resulted in over $10 billion in value reductions for their clients.
The firm's services cover the entire annual property tax cycle, including valuation review, rendition support, protest filing, negotiation with appraisal district staff, and representation at Appraisal Review Board (ARB) hearings. Estes & Banks Tax Advisory caters to a wide range of property types, including multifamily, industrial, office, retail, hospitality, build-to-rent, energy, and mixed-use properties.
Unlike a national firm, which treats Texas as one market among fifty, Estes & Banks Tax Advisory recognizes the unique nature of each of the state's 253 appraisal districts. "Texas property tax is intensely local," said Josh Estes, founding partner of Estes & Banks Tax Advisory.
The firm operates on a contingent fee basis, meaning clients only pay when the firm successfully reduces their property's assessed value. This approach ensures that clients are not burdened with upfront costs unless the firm delivers tangible results.
Estes & Banks Tax Advisory focuses exclusively on Texas, representing owners in valuation and protest matters before appraisal districts statewide. The firm's services are designed to help commercial property owners navigate the intricacies of Texas property tax laws and ensure they are not overpaying on their assessments.
Texas is the only state where the firm works. Texas has its own property tax statutes and calendar, along with 253 appraisal districts that each have their own appraisers, evidence expectations, and way of handling a file. A national firm treats Texas as one market among fifty. Estes & Banks Tax Advisory treats each Texas appraisal district as its own market.
"Texas property tax is intensely local," said Josh Estes, founding partner of Estes & Banks Tax Advisory.
The firm was formed by Josh Estes and Spencer Banks, shareholders of the affiliated law firm Estes & Banks, P.C. Across their careers, both have worked on Texas commercial and industrial property tax matters that have generated more than $10 billion in value reductions.
