We always review the Village assessment of a property. Villages maintain their own assessor and separate and distinct assessment roll. That’s the reason that a separate tax appeal must be filed against a Village. The Village appeal follows the same general steps as a County appeal, however the Village will, in most cases, be resolved in a SCAR proceeding. Generally speaking, local Villages have a much better grasp on the value of properties within its assessing jurisdiction. We have clients in every Village in Nassau County and have successfully resolved thousands of Village appeals.
