How values have moved

Imported rolls cover only one year so far, so this uses the year-by-year values on the County’s own record pages for the 101 homes in Syosset whose records we have retrieved. That is a sample, not every home, so its medians differ from the figures above.

Reading these figures

A median describes Syosset, not your home, which may sit well above or below it for good reasons. The tentative roll can still change before it becomes final. Recorded payments are not a tax bill: exemptions and special districts vary by home. This page summarizes published records and is not an appraisal; verify any figure that matters in the Nassau County Land Records Viewer, and see how these pages are built.

Common questions

How are homes in Syosset assessed?

Nassau assesses one-to-three family homes at the same small fraction of County market value across the county. In Syosset, the median assessed value is $719, which is 0.1% of market value. Your tax bill is calculated from assessed value.

How do I file a property tax grievance in Syosset?

File with Nassau County’s Assessment Review Commission (ARC), online or on paper, during the published window of January 4–March 1, 2027. Filing is free, needs no attorney, and the County states a grievance never raises an assessment. ARC reviews the assessment behind county, town, and school taxes. If your home is in an incorporated village that sets its own assessment, the village holds a separate grievance, usually in February.

Understanding your Nassau County assessment

Market value, assessed value and your bill measure different things. A grievance argues the value behind your assessment is too high.

Choosing comparable sales

Homes like yours in size, type, location and condition. A neighbor’s lower tax bill isn’t evidence.
