SCRP’s partner for real estate auditing has decades of experience auditing the New York City Department of Finance charges & taxes to property owners in Manhattan and it’s boroughs (Queens, Bronx, Staten Island, and Brooklyn). As with the water & sewer audits, this service is on a contingent billing model: if there are no refund(s) and/or verifiable future reductions, there is NO FEE. It’s very easy to put in motion, too. If required, SCRP’s partner will send a certified engineer for a site visit to the property at no cost to the client, no matter what the outcome of the audit is.
The audits will identify if any errors exist in the various tax abatement/exemptions areas such as:
– SCRIE (Senior Citizen Rent Increase Exemption);
– DRIE (Disability Rent Increase Exemption);
– J-51;
– Shelter Rent;
– Green Roof Tax Abatement;
Cooperative/Condominium Tax Abatement;
– DHE;
– REAP;
We apply similar auditing procedures in our review of DOF billing of property taxes and can secure SIGNIFICANT REFUNDS/CREDITS by uncovering tax errors;
