The opportunity

Kin is expanding the ways we help homeowners take control of the financial side of homeownership. Property taxes are one of the largest and least understood expenses homeowners face, and many miss opportunities to challenge inaccurate property assessments.

We're launching our property tax appeals product in Florida, Texas, and Georgia, three of Kin’s largest markets where property tax protests are common. We're looking for a Sr. Property Tax Appeals Consultant to own the county-level execution of this work: preparing filings, building valuation cases, and representing our customers through the appeals process.

Your responsibilities

• Conduct informal appraisals, examining and evaluating residential properties to establish market values

• Manage protest submission workflows, including required documentation, filing timelines, and submission methods across counties

• Prepare evidence and represent customers in hearings, including informal negotiations and formal appeal proceedings

• Handle a caseload of property tax appeals using Kin's existing internal tools and workflows

• Collaborate with the team to improve internal tools and workflows related to the property tax appeals product

• Serve as a customer-facing point of contact for questions about the appeals process, from sign-up and onboarding through post-hearing outcomes.

Success in this role

By the end of your first year:

• Partnered in launching new business in 2+ additional states, expanding on Kin’s initial test in Texas

• Reduced customer’s property taxes through handling cases

• Identified opportunities to improve the process as Kin further rolls out the product across states

What you'll bring

Licensing (state-specific):

Active Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) license or Senior Property Tax Consultant Designation.

Experience:

• Experience in property valuation, tax appeal, or appraisal work, with strong analytical and quantitative skills

• Experience working across multiple counties or jurisdictions; prior experience inside a county appraisal district or property appraiser's office is a strong plus

• Familiarity with filing requirements, deadlines, and hearing procedures in the relevant state(s)

• Comfortable giving practical feedback on internal tools and processes to help improve them, and adaptable to those tools and workflows changing quickly.

• Strong customer communication skills, comfortable fielding client questions by phone and email at various points in the appeals process

• Sharp, fast analytical thinking, able to quickly evaluate comparable sales, assessment data, and appraisal district evidence in order to construct persuasive, well-supported arguments for a reduced valuation under pressure.

Bonus if you have:

• Current TDLR registration as a Senior Property Tax Consultant is preferred

• Established relationships or prior experience working directly with county appraisal districts / property appraiser staff in any one of the three states (Texas, Florida, Georgia)

• Able to provide insight into county appraisal district / property appraiser practices and procedural differences across assigned counties

How we work

We don’t just hire for skills. We hire for alignment. Kinfolk bring diverse perspectives, but we’re united by a shared set of values that shape how we work and how we show up for each other and our customers.

Raise the bar. Drop the ego - Attitudes are contagious. Every one of us is responsible for creating the culture we want to work in. High performance. Low drama. Always respectful. Like professional sports teams, we win by working in sync. We show up, work hard, and play to each other’s strengths.

Act like an owner - We are owners, fully accountable for achieving Kin’s mission. That requires positive, proactive, big-picture thinking well beyond our job descriptions. Ask questions, Take ownership. Do the right thing, even when it‘s hard. Because when Kin thrives, so do you. And so do our customers.

Operate lean. Deliver more - We build efficiency into everything we do. Each dollar we save gets reinvested to deliver more to our customers: better pricing, more products, and new innovations. We work smarter by relentlessly prioritizing and using technology, including AI, to multiply our impact. Lean is about focus, not deprivation. Lean isn't a limitation — it's our competitive advantage.

Keep asking ‘What if?’ - We value curiosity. To make insurance better for our customers, we experiment. We embrace insights. And we base decisions on data rather than assumptions. We see setbacks as opportunities for growth and are always learning and improving. Both individually and as a company.
