In a recent ruling by the Minnesota Tax Court, Hollydale Land LLC, operators of the former Hollydale golf course in Plymouth, MN, secured the right to challenge over $2.6 million in deferred taxes imposed after the property was sold to developers. The decision, delivered by Chief Judge Jane N. Bowman on December 1, 2023, denied Hennepin County's motion to dismiss the lawsuit, affirming the timeliness of Hollydale's appeal. The significant victory was secured for Hollydale Land LLC, by Tim Rye and Adam Pabarcus from Larkin Hoffman’s property tax appeals team.

New Podcast Series! Black Women in Real Estate: Redefining the Landscape
It is with great pleasure that we announce the release of a new podcast series on The Larkin Hoffman Real Estate Podcast.
