It's time to check your property assessment

Most municipalities in New York State publish a tentative assessment roll on the town, city, or county website on May 1. The tentative assessment roll includes the property assessment, the assessor’s estimate of the market value of the property, and exemption information. 

Check your assessment

Is your municipality conducting a reassessment? Your city or town may be reassessing properties this year. Reassessments help to ensure assessments are fair. Learn about reassessments.
