Tax Restoration

We wanted to take this opportunity to remind you of a change in the way the NYC Department of Finance (DOF) assesses Restored Real Estate Taxes after a particular Owner (the “Entitled Owner”) is no longer eligible for a recognized Exemption. As an example, in the past, if a property was benefitted by a Veteran’s Exemption and the Entitled Owner died (assume for this example that the Entitled Owner was not married), the Veteran’s Exemption benefitting the Property would terminate as of the Entitled Owner’s date of death and DOF, upon being advised of the Entitled Owner’s death, would retroactively assess the Restored Taxes commencing in the tax period in which the date of death occurred.
