NI - Not Issued, Conducting a Reassessment

(Assessment Ratios as of August 1, 2010 )

For example, if you have a residential property in Mount Vernon and your assessment is $15,000, divide $15,000 by .0254. The result - $590,551 - is what the Assessor thinks your property is worth.

Do your think your property is actually worth what the Tax Assessor thinks it's worth? If the answer is "no" your property is over-assessed and you are paying too much taxes.
