Nassau residents now have a bit more time to file a property tax grievance for the 2026/27 tax year, with the Assessment Review Commission having now extended the deadline to April 1st. Take advantage of this opportunity—here’s why it’s a no brainer to file with Maidenbaum:
No Risk, All Reward
In Nassau County and throughout New York State, filing a property tax grievance is completely risk-free. The worst-case scenario? The County denies your request for a reduction—but your assessment won’t increase because of your challenge. This is a major advantage compared to other states (like New Jersey), where a failed challenge could actually lead to a higher assessment.
As Maidenbaum’s Mark Miller explained in a recent podcast, the County “is not allowed to raise the assessment merely because you challenged it. Even if you took your case to court and the hearing officer found that you are undervalued, they still can’t raise your assessment. That’s the law in New York State.”
When you file with Maidenbaum, there’s zero risk—we only charge a fee if we successfully lower your taxes. The only cost you might incur is a $30 court-imposed filing fee if your case goes to Small Claims Assessment Review. That’s it. No hidden fees, no surprises (unlike many other Nassau County tax reduction firms).
Filing on Your Own? It’s Riskier Than You Think
Yes, you can file your own grievance (Pro Se) with Nassau County, but it’s easy to make mistakes—like submitting incomplete paperwork or using incorrect comparable sales data (comps). These errors could mean missing out on potential savings. That’s why so many homeowners trust Maidenbaum—we handle everything for you, from the date of filing to the resolution of your case, increasing the probability of the best possible outcome.
Grieving your assessment takes just a few minutes of your time.
