Property tax deadlines are an important part of managing your finances as a homeowner in New York City. The due dates for NYC property taxes depend on the assessed value of your property, with different schedules for properties assessed at $250,000 or less versus those assessed at over $250,000. Understanding when your property taxes are due will help you avoid late fees and ensure that you stay on top of your payments.

Section 01
If your property is assessed at $250,000 or less, your property taxes will be due on a quarterly basis. This means you will need to make payments four times a year, with the following due dates:
It’s important to mark these dates on your calendar, as missing a payment can result in late fees and interest charges. Additionally, quarterly payments are typically due at the start of each quarter, so you’ll need to be prepared to pay on time every three months.
Section 02
For properties with an assessed value over $250,000, the payment schedule is semi-annual, meaning taxes are due only twice a year. The due dates for semi-annual payments are:
These payments are generally larger than those for properties assessed at $250,000 or less, but they only occur twice per year. As with quarterly payments, it’s essential to make sure you pay by the due dates to avoid penalties.
Section 03
Your property tax bill will outline which payment schedule applies to your property based on its assessed value. You can access your property tax bill online via the NYC Department of Finance website by entering your property’s Borough, Block, and Lot (BBL) number. This portal also allows you to track your payment history, pay online, and manage your account.
Section 04
If you miss a property tax payment, interest and penalties will begin to accrue on the outstanding balance. The penalties will increase the longer you wait, and failure to pay can eventually lead to a tax lien or foreclosure proceedings. Therefore, it’s important to ensure that you pay on time and stay up-to-date with your property taxes.
