Irondequoit Property Tax Overview
Irondequoit Town Assessor
Assessor Dan Stanford runs the property tax records operation for Irondequoit. His office is at Town Hall, 1280 Titus Avenue, Rochester, NY 14617. The direct phone line is (585) 336-6055. Staff can answer questions about assessed values, property class codes, sales data, and exemption applications.
The tentative assessment roll comes out on May 1 each year. It lists every parcel in Irondequoit with its value, class, and exemptions. If you disagree with the assessed value, contact the assessor first. Many issues get resolved through an informal review. The assessor can show you the data used to set your value, including comparable sales and property characteristics.
If the informal route does not work, you can file a formal grievance. Grievance Day is the fourth Tuesday in May. You need form RP-524. The Board of Assessment Review hears cases and makes decisions that day. If you are still not satisfied, Small Claims Assessment Review is available for homes valued under $450,000. The filing fee is $30. An Article 7 proceeding in Supreme Court is the other option, but it costs more and takes longer.

The ORPTS regional page for the Finger Lakes region has broader data on assessment practices across western New York.
The county also maintains GIS mapping tools for parcel boundaries, zoning, and aerial photos. The NYS GIS Parcel Viewer shows basic lot data for every property in the state.

Property Tax Exemptions in Irondequoit
Irondequoit residents can apply for several property tax exemptions. STAR is the most common. Basic STAR is for all owner-occupied primary residences. Enhanced STAR is for seniors 65 and older who meet income requirements. New STAR applicants register through the NYS Tax Department. If you already get STAR, the credit renews each year unless the state flags an issue.
Veterans exemptions under RPTL Sections 458 and 458-a reduce your assessed value based on service type and disability. You file with the assessor and include your DD-214 or equivalent discharge papers. The savings apply to town, county, and school taxes. A VA disability rating of 50% or more adds an extra reduction.
Senior citizen exemptions under RPTL Section 467 use an income-based sliding scale. Disability exemptions under RPTL Section 459-c work the same way. Both require annual renewal. Get your forms from the assessor's office at Town Hall. Most deadlines fall in early March, but the exact date can change from year to year.
How Irondequoit Property Taxes Work
Your tax bill in Irondequoit comes in two parts. The town and county bill arrives in January and is due by February 10. The school tax bill comes in the fall with an October 1 deadline. Each bill is calculated by taking your assessed value and applying the relevant tax rates. The rates are set by the town board, county legislature, and school board during their budget processes.
School taxes are the biggest chunk for most homes. Fire district levies and special district charges also apply. The breakdown shows on your tax bill, line by line. If a charge looks wrong, call the assessor or tax receiver. They can explain each item and fix errors if they find one.
Irondequoit assesses at a fraction of full market value. The state sets an equalization rate that adjusts for this. That rate matters because it affects how exemptions are calculated and how the state distributes aid. To estimate your home's full market value from the assessment, divide the assessed amount by the equalization rate. The result should be close to what the home would sell for on the open market.
