I pay about $3,100 property taxes, but that is with the Babylon Village taxes so there is no rebate there.
nancy, is that $3100 including Babylon Village tax a typo? Omigosh, I haven't heard of a net tax that low in a nice area like BV in years.
The lowest net property tax of anyone I know is my friend's elderly father who lives in St James. The true tax on his 2400 sf colonial on a half acre is a little over $13,000. He gets both the Enhanced STAR and Veterans exemption which brings his out of pocket yearly taxes down to just under $5000.
I know quite a few people in the area between BV and East Islip who live south of Union Blvd or south of 27A and every one of them is paying at least $8000/yr after Basic STAR... most in fact are paying well over $10,000; some considerably more... and only a few have larger homes (3000 sf and up).
Yes...I got mine (yesterday)....a mere $575
On an $8200/yr tax bill....thats nothing. Something more needs to happen here.
