A Little Neck homeowner recently received an $18,000 refund following a year-long battle against a property tax overcharge.
In July 2020, senior resident Livia Boyadjian learned that her property tax bill on Annadale Lane had jumped from $2,492 to $4,802, due to the city erroneously combining her lot with construction on the vacant lot next door. The Little Neck resident was unable to address this error while simultaneously caring for her late husband’s critical illness at the time.
Boyadhian reached out to the Office of the Taxpayer Advocate in February 2021 after receiving inflated property tax bills for over 10 months but the issue was not resolved. She also requested to meet with a Department of Finance (DOF) inspector, which was deemed “unnecessary.”
