Our discussion will include the history behind this tax, where the funds go, how to assess if you’ve been charged the correct amount and strategies for new and existing shopping center owners on how to keep this cost down. We’re going to discuss how technology has changed the appraisal process and tips for underwriting new acquisitions.
