May 1st, Release of Tentative Property Assessment Rolls

Last Updated: 5/3/2024

Every year on May 1^st, each Town releases their tentative property assessment roll for the upcoming Real Property tax year (includes Village properties where applicable). The roll becomes final on July 1^st, and the information from the roll is used to calculate School, Town & County, and Village property taxes from July 1^st of the current year through June 30^th of the upcoming year.

Tentative assessment rolls are generated and made available to give property owners an opportunity to review their assessment and bring any concerns to their Town Assessor. Often concerns can be resolved through a simple conversation between owner and Assessor. If not, property owners can file a formal grievance through their Town Assessor to the Town Board of Assessment review. These Boards meet on or about the fourth Tuesday in May. They review each grievance and determine if a reduction in assessment is warranted.

Each Town posts the tentative roll on the Town website and the roll is physically available for review at the Town Hall. All Tioga County tentative Town rolls and Town Assessor contact information are also available on the Tioga County Real Property website at https://tiogacountyny.gov/departments/real-property-assessment-rolls/. Additional information on each property can be found on the County real property data viewer at https://imo.co.tioga.ny.us/index.aspx .
