A Note from Our Managing Principal
Hi there,
I’m Terri Patton—Managing Principal here at Anderson & Associates. When I took the reins of this firm, I knew I was stepping into a legacy of hard work, trusted relationships, and rock-solid results. My goal? To honor that legacy while bringing fresh perspective, modern systems, and a renewed focus on personalized client care.
We may be a small firm, but we do big work. And what sets us apart—aside from decades of combined experience—is how deeply we care about getting it right for our clients. Property tax consulting might not sound glamorous (unless you’re really into spreadsheets and tax codes like we are), but for us, it’s all about creating clarity, saving money, and making our clients’ lives easier.
If you’re here because you’re dealing with a confusing or costly property assessment, you’re in the right place. We’re here to help—and we’d love to connect.
Warmly,
Terri Patton
Managing Principal, Anderson & Associates
