     Tax Abatement - Commercial & Residential Property

What is Tax Abatement? 

Tax abatement is the process by which any person or entity “aggrieved” by reason of paying property tax, legally challenges the tax assessment for the property.  If you believe that your property tax assessment is greater than the market value of your property, or that it is unfair based upon a comparison of other properties in your city or town, you may be eligible for tax abatement. 

Who is Eligible for Tax Abatement? 

Generally, this is the property owner but it can be others who have significant ownership/lease interest in the property may be eligible as well.  You have the right to apply for an abatement each year but you must be an aggrieved party and meet all timely filing requirements, which are very specific and governed by statute.
