I wrote an article this month on Property Tax Remediation for the neighboring city of Rye (see link below) that you may find interesting.

You need to get an appraisal for you property and submit it on an official abatement form you can get from your assessors office.

That was a nice offer from the agent who answered before me. I live in the area. Rye went to full value assessment a few years ago.

The town changes the assessment up or down based on the market that year, so some of it might resolve itself, otherwise you can file a certiorari to bring the assessment down based on the market value.

You can do this yourself, have a Realtor help or hire a professional who does that for a living.

All the best!

FIRST ANSWER

Property Taxes are based upon Fair Market Value. First you need to find out what your property is assessed for by the Village of Rye Brook and the Town of Rye. Once you have this information, you will be able to determine whether you are over assessed. The Town of Rye is at full market value so call the assessor's office and get that info. If it's higher than what you think your property is worth, give me a call at
