For owners and tenants of commercial or multi-family residential property in Nassau County or New York City, now is the time to seek relief on your property's tax liability. Real property taxes represent one of the largest expenses of owning or leasing a property. Reducing this expense is even more critical in today's economic environment as many property owners and taxpayers are struggling economically with the current pandemic and are seeking to mitigate costs whenever possible. As municipalities look to generate revenue, now is the time to ensure your rights are protected as failure to timely file an appeal can lead to an excessive property tax burden with no opportunity to remedy the issue.
