Tax Grievance in Suffolk County

How hard is it to do it yourself? Will I be in way over my head? Where do I even start? Is there a website where I can download the forms?

Sorry for all the questions... I am trying to avoid paying someone else to do it if I could do it myself.

i am not sure what town you are in - they are specific to township

I know Huntington - the forms are available the first 2 weeks of may and due usually the 3rd teusday but maybe earlier mattering how days fall. The instruction form tells you exactly how to fill it out -

the only thing that you need help with is a realestate agent to give you comps if you don't have a recent appraisal. I have had to pay for one appraisal - the next I just used as guidance with new comps

You can do it yourself. I have done it successfully twice. Check with your town's tax department by calling your Town Hall, or go to the town website.

The deadline in Suffolk County pursuant to state law is the 3rd Tuesday in May - this year it's May 19.

Most, if not all, Towns have the forms available on their website under the "assessor's office" section.

I am in the Town of Brookhaven. I just found the forms online. Do I just go to a realtor and ask for the information? How much do they charge? I am clueless about all this.

ETA: My house was appraised in July of 2012 when we refinanced. Is that recent enough?
