Nassau has not reassessed homes in like four to five years. So when they last did it your house was assessed at full market value supposedly.


But everyone who grieves gets 4-5% off every year pretty much. So for someone who have never grieved in last four years your house is overassessed by 20%, by next year when they give another 4-5% break you will be at even more.

But if you grieved each year for the past 4 years, you would not use the 20% multiplier?

You would use it on the comps, remember they were sold at market value. Assessed value should be 80% of market

And what about for the section regarding construction and alteration?

Obviously an increase to square footage or footprint would count, but replacing or moving plumbing and replacing old electric requires a permit, as does raising a ceiling, but would these be "contruction" or "alteration" for the purposes of the AR1?

Owner's estimate I would put it at what the others assessed at which you referenced... 320 or 340 or close. I recall putting my estimate request in the 400s when I was worth 500+ on the market and my FMV I was grieving was in the 500s.

Evidence - I would explain the others' assessment values and how your home compares to those (style, sqft, age, condition, # of rooms).

Where did you get the .00017 for correct level of assessment?

Mistake. Should be .0017 or .17%.
475,000 * .0017 = 808.

Standard level of assessment in Nassau Co is .25% or .0025. That's why I asked.
