Brooklyn Tax Notices Need the Right Mailing Address

A Brooklyn owner should treat the mailing address on file with NYC Finance as a practical property check, not a formality. Owners can change the mailing address or update owner names shown on property tax bills and other property tax notices. The owner names on those bills and notices should match the names on the deed. The deed-fraud guidance points owners to keep Finance contact information current and to check recorded deeds and mortgages.

Before a closing, estate change, refinance, or long trip, pull the property record and compare the deed names, owner names, and mailing address. Save the submitted Finance update and the date it was sent with the next property-tax bill.
