What we do

Our RPIE services.

Full-service RPIE compliance for NYC income-property owners in all five boroughs — from a single residential walk-up to a hundred-property commercial portfolio.

Protest Taxes

Self-serve Tax Commission applications: look up a BBL, see whether TC-101 or TC-109 applies, and generate a draft from public records. You add only the fields that are still missing — no account required to start.

Who it's for: Owners and representatives who want to start a NYC property-tax protest without logging into the workspace first.
Covers: TC-101 (income-producing / rental) and TC-109 (condo) drafts from assessment-roll data.
Start: Address or BBL lookup, then a stamped draft PDF.

Non-primary residence surcharge check

Free two-minute screening for NYC's enacted pied-à-terre surcharge. After the verdict, the check shows which exemption path may apply, the document list for that path, and how a Tax Commission TC-107 appeal is sequenced with a DOF filing.

Who it's for: Owners who received a DOF surcharge notice, or who want to know whether a high-value home, condo, or co-op is likely in scope.
Covers: Class 1 homes over $5M and Class 2 condo / co-op units at $1M or more, plus the three lawful TC-107 routes.
Start: Address or BBL, then optional I need help once the lot is confirmed.

Penalty if missed: $100 first year · $500 second year · $1,000 third+ consecutive year.
