New Real Estate Tax Assessments - Is the Nassau Assessor’s office ready?

I just came back from a family get together in Washington D.C. The tour of the Capital was (as always) exciting, especially because we had our almost 8-year-old, Grandson with us.

I came back to a considerable number of e-mails and phone calls from clients, both commercial and residential, who received their new assessments and increased (mostly exaggerated) market values. There are just not enough tax assessment personnel to deal with the tens of thousands of taxpayers faced with very large real estate tax forecasts.

January 2, 2019, is the date for the new Congress to be sworn in and for the protest of tax assessments filing period to begin.
