In trying to find out approximately what our taxes will be when we complete a new construction on the property we are buying in Garden City, I've been digging around the My Nassau Properties website. There are two pages for each property that deal with taxes. The "view correspondence" page shows the adjusted market value and assessment values. There is also a "general and school taxes" page which shows the amount of the village tax and school tax. For instance, on the property we are buying, the current village tax is about $2,000 and the school tax is about $8,700. We were told the total tax is $16,000. So I assume there is a 3rd tax that is also to be paid, but I don't know what it is or how to find it online. Anyone know??
Just looked up a house in Garden City. If you click on the view general tax bills you see the taxes paid to Nassau County and the Town of Hempstead, the Garden City village taxes don't appear to be on there as they are likely paid seperately.
I pay taxes to Nassau County (less than $1000), Town of Hempstead ($6000 or so b/c it includes about $5000 in GC school taxes), and GC village taxes (about $5000). The assessed value of my house in around $800K or so, I think. It actually went down abotu $25K since last year. Of course, this is a 1955 house, so new construction would be more. Generally, Hempstead and Nassau taxes are pretty low since the village takes care of most services (water, PD, FD, street maintenance, sanitation, etc). I think the only thing that's Nassau for the most part are the ambulances.
Hope that helps. You could of course call village hall.
I built onto an exiting back yard deck attached to the house. The original deck was rotted and I replace all the wood and also expanded the size of the deck a few feet.
Will I have a problem to sell my home after 20 years with this refurbished deck?
Thanks
