You Can Lower Your Property Taxes! United Way of Chester County, in partnership with the United Way of Southern Chester County and Legal Aid of Southeastern Pennsylvania, is offering assistance to mobile home owners in Chester County to file for property tax reassessment appeals. Your mobile home depreciates over time, but the tax authority won’t lower your assessment unless you appeal. In our pilot year, we helped 177 of your neighbors in the Honey Brook and Downingtown area. On average, these residents each lowered their assessment by 70% and their taxes in 2020 will amount to 30% of what they owed in previous years.
