The last year in which the Department of Finance is aware of an alteration to the building which would change the tax assessment of the building. An alteration in this context may include work which does not require a change or re-issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy from the Department of Buildings. The Department of Buildings has separate rules and definitions for determining what is an alteration.
The property tax assessment process starts when the city's assessors
determine the market value of your property. Despite the name, this
value has little to do with what someone would actually pay
for your property. In some neighborhoods the market values are close
to actual property values. In others they can be as little as 5% of true values.
Even within neighborhoods there can be wide variations.
Market Value
$7,600,000
$7,180,000
Property tax is only levied on a portion of the market value. This portion
is called the assessed value. For 1-3 family homes and 1-3 story condos,
taxes are levied on 6% of the market value. For all other properties, taxes
are levied on 45% of the value.
Sometimes the city will exempt part of the assessed value from
taxation for a certain number of years. Usually these exemptions are granted as
an incentive to make improvements to an existing structure or to build on a
vacant lot. Larger incentives are granted in development zones. For
rental property the incentives are usually tied to rent stabilization.

While the city's assessors have noted the rapid appreciation
of property in New York City, the state understands that it would be burdensome
for property taxes to rise too fast. Therefore, increases in the assessed
value are phased in over a number of years. This introduces the
transitional assessed value, which is limit on the portion of the assessed
value which has been introduced into the tax base.
Unfortunately, when the assessed value is phased in, sometimes the
exemptions are as well.

The taxable value is the smaller of the
city's net assessed value and the
transitional net assessed value.
Taxable Value
$2,661,405
$2,906,117
The property tax is determined by multiplying the
assessed value by the tax rate. The tax rate is different for different
types of buildings.
In addition to exemptions, the city also grants tax abatements to
some properties. An abatement is simply a discount —
it is subtracted directly from the annual tax bill.

This web site is not an authoritative source for property tax information.
The computer program that generates this analysis
was only validated in an informal manner using a small sample of properties.
The analysis presented for this property may be incorrect, and you should
validate it independently if you will rely on it.
The only authoritative source is the New York City Department of Finance (DOF).
You can visit the property tax section of its web site
here.
The analysis presented here is based on assessment data from a point in
time. The DOF periodically revises assessments. If the assessment for this
property is raised, the tax bill will almost certainly rise as well. Some raises
are phased in (transitioned) slowly, others are not. From time to time
the city raises tax rates, which also raises tax bills.

The Department of Finance (DOF) issues exemptions bi-annually every fiscal year
(7/1 - 6/30). Tentative exemptions are issued at the beginning of the fiscal year
and are subject to adjustment if the DOF learns of changes in eligibility criteria.
The Final exemptions are issued at the end of the fiscal year and will reflect any
changes in exemption totals. Increases in assessed value of all class 4 properties
and coops, condos, and rental buildings with more than 10 units in class 2 must be
phased-in over a 5 year period. The transitional assessed value represents the interim
value and any changes occurring during this phase-in period.

Exemption Code: A five-digit identification number used for designating
each specific exemption type. The first of the five digits can have a value of
1, 2, 3, or 4, and these values can be interpreted as follows:
1. Public owner, exemption not limited by State law in amount, duration, or tax purpose.
2. Private owner, exemption not limited by State law in amount, duration, or tax purpose.
3. Public owner, exemption limited by State law in amount, duration, or tax purpose.
4. Private owner, exemption limited by State law in amount, duration, or tax purpose.
The second, third, and fourth digits are read together and constitute a unique code for each
exemption statute. The fifth digit, which can have a value ranging from zero to 6, identifies
the tax purposes for which the exemption is granted and it can be interpreted as follows:
0. Exempt for county, city/town, and school purposes.
1. Exempt for county, and city/town purposes.
2. Exempt for county purposes.
3. Exempt for city/town purposes.
4. Exempt for school purposes.
5. Exempt for county and school purposes.
6. Exempt for city/town and school purposes.
_. (Underline) More than one entry possible (local-option exemptions).

Land Value
Remis
This is the land and building remission values combined.
If during any assessment, the assessor establishes that a property's value has
changed substantially,it will be recorded on the next released roll. However,
a property's value cannot increase drastically in a short amount of time.
(This is to prevent a large jump in annual property tax payments
with little notice.) To allow for this change, remissions are issued to counter
the increase, which prevents these large jumps in taxes.
Total
This is the total value, including remissions, for both land and building.
The department of Housing, Preservation and Development (HPD) administers the J-51 benefit program in NYC.
The J-51 Program refers to a tax incentive used for the renovation of multiple unit residential buildings.
The information in this section presents a history summary of the granted abatements and other related values of the
J-51 benefit program.
Properties and businesses within NYC qualify for a number of city, state and federal economic and development incentives based on factors such as location, business type, investment, renovation, new construction, increased employment, and other factors. This section shows you for which programs this particular building may qualify.
When excessive violations are present, this can adversely affect the
support given by The NYC Department of Housing Preservation and
Development (HPD). These violations can result in building-wide
inspections, fees, and the requirement of extensive repair work to
correct underlying conditions. In some cases, outstanding violations
may result in a lien being placed on the property. It is also
substantially more difficult to mortgage a building with extensive
violations.

Description of the Classes
Class I
Conditions that render the building uninhabitable.
Class C
Immediately hazardous, such as inadequate fire exits, rodents, lead-based paint, lack of heat, hot water, electricity, or gas. An owner has 24 hours to correct a C violation and five days to certify the correction to remove the violation. If the owner fails to comply with emergency C violations such as lack of heat or hot water, HPD initiates corrective action through its Emergency Repair Program.
Class B
Hazardous conditions, such as requiring public doors to be self-closing, adequate lighting in public areas, lack of posted Certificate of Occupancy, or removal of vermin. An owner has 30 days to correct a B violation and two weeks to certify the correction to remove the violation.
Class A
Non-hazardous conditions, such as minor leaks, chipping or peeling paint when no children under the age of six live in the home, or lack of signs designating floor numbers. An owner has 90 days to correct an A violation and two weeks to certify repair to remove the violation.
