Your Westchester real estate taxes are based on your property's assessment. The assessment is set by the local municipality where your property is located and is supposed to be based on your property's fair market value. Sometimes properties are over-assessed, especially in today's market, in which case property owners are paying more than their equitable share of real estate taxes.
There is a fix to this problem...
It is possible to protest your property's assessment and potentially get your taxes reduced. The first step in this process entails filing a formal complaint (also known as a grievance) with your local municipality within a specified time called the grievance period. Every municipality sets it own grievance period and the deadlines are below, but each deadline should be confirmed through your local assessor's office.
