If Your Property Is Over-Assessed, You May Be Paying More Than Your Fair Share

Many New York property owners pay higher property taxes than necessary due to over-assessed property values. If your assessment is higher than the fair market value of your property—or higher than comparable properties—you may be eligible to file a Property Tax Assessment Grievance.

SIVAD Tax Service assists New York property owners with reviewing assessments and preparing grievance documentation in a professional, accurate, and timely manner.

What Is a Property Tax Assessment Grievance?

A Property Tax Assessment Grievance is a formal request submitted to your local municipality asking that your property’s assessed value be reviewed and corrected.

If approved, a reduced assessment may result in:

• Lower annual property taxes
• Ongoing tax savings in future years
• A fairer assessment based on market value
