At PRIORITY Property Tax Reduction Services, we specialize in Property Tax Grievance services for both Nassau & Suffolk County Homeowners. We are exceptionally well-versed in the requirements of Property Tax Grievance at the Tax Assessor’s office of the Townships we serve.
We start out immediately building your case once you have completed and signed our easy application form, either online or returned through the mail. If you have a certified property appraisal that we can use, we will add that into your file at that time. If not, we will conduct our own appraisal using Multiple Listing data. There is no charge for this appraisal, unless we win you a reduction.
We will file your tax grievance by the appropriate time as set by the tax assessor’s offices. A decision from the Town is usually to be returned throughout the summer or into the early fall. If a reduction was approved by the Board Assessment Review, the lower assessment will be reflected in your December tax bill.
If your grievance is denied, we will conduct an in-depth review, if we believe we can still win your case, we will file an appeal on your behalf. We will do this within 30 days of the decision. Generally, this will usually occur sometime in September or October. We represent your case at a hearing, and the court usually renders a decision within 30 days of the hearing. Upon a successful appeal, and we win a reduction for you, your second half tax bill will be revised to reflect your new assessment and will show a credit for your first half overpayment. If you’ve already paid your taxes in full, the Town will issue a refund check.

We do not charge any upfront fees. If we get you a reduction, we charge 50% of the first year’s savings.
If we had to file an appeal, we charge $30.00 to cover the court filing fee. If we did the property appraisal, we will charge $75. Savings in all subsequent years are entirely yours.
