Mike Prince, President GWI Partnership (a subsidiary of Golf Works, Inc.) "Joseph A. Dengel & Company provided property tax consulting services on our 36-hole, member-owned, private country club located in Austin, Texas. Their assignment included a review of the club’s property tax statements and related tax assessments, participation at informal meetings with the assessor, plus a detailed presentation at the formal hearing before an Appraisal Review Board on our behalf. As a result, Mr. Dengel’s company was able to produce a 40% tax savings to our club for the tax year. Joseph A. Dengel & Company has an expansive knowledge of the golf market and a thorough understanding of the position of the private club market, particularly in dealing and communicating with tax assessors."

Mr. Dengel was able to successfully reduce the assessments on each of our golf clubs which resulted in substantial tax savings and an increased "bottom line" for our operations. I would strongly recommend the professionals of Joseph A. Dengel & Company to other golf club owners and managers."

The appraisal report was instrumental in generating a new mortgage loan by our bank for this golf facility. I would strongly urge other golf course lenders and investors to use the market professionals of Joseph A. Dengel & Company before making any major underwriting or golf investment decisions." David Moore, Vice President Compass Bank "Joseph A. Dengel & Company has provided a variety of services for our company including golf course market studies and valuations.
