Waitlist

Property tax appeals in New York

New York is on our waitlist: we're not filing here yet. You can still ask us to look at a property, and we'll tell you what we find and whether we can act on it.

Appeal deadline

Grievance Day — the fourth Tuesday in May in most towns. New York City: March 1 (March 15 for Class 1 homes)

The usual deadline. The notice your county sends always governs.

Appeals go to: Board of Assessment Review (towns and cities); New York City Tax Commission

How the process typically works

  1. Outside New York City, an owner files a written complaint (Form RP-524) with the local Board of Assessment Review by Grievance Day.
  2. In New York City, the challenge is an application to the Tax Commission.
  3. If the board denies the complaint, owners of homes can go to Small Claims Assessment Review; other property goes to court under a tax certiorari proceeding.

What we’d need from you

  • A signed authorization naming your representative on the complaint.
  • Income and expense information for income-producing property, where the board asks for it.
