How is the total assessed value determined? The Department of Assessment estimates the market value of your property and then applies a fractional level of assessment, which is to be uniform for property in the same class.
The median property tax rate in Nassau County is 2.10%, which is significantly higher than both the national median of 0.99% and the New York state median of 2.39%.
School funding is also a large proportion of what makes Long Island taxes as high as they are. There is a return on investment, however, in that Nassau and Suffolk County school districts are regularly ranked among the best in the country.
Homeowners who want to challenge the county's assessment must go through the Nassau County Assessment Review Commission. You have two options: hire a lawyer who will take a cut of what you save on taxes, or do it yourself. If you want to personally file a grievance, start by making an account on the ARC website.
Tax notices are mailed to the owner's address as it appears on the certified tax roll, normally on or before November 1st. If you do not receive a tax bill in November, you may print one from our website or contact our office to request a copy be mailed to you.
