Buying in New York: the state layer

Property tax — 1.42% effective

The Census Bureau's ACS 2025 medians put New York's typical bill at $6,706 on a $470,900 home — an effective 1.42%. Effective rates blend every local levy into one comparable number; your parcel's assessed value and local rates set the real bill.

New York's property-tax quirk

Property tax cap: local government and school district (outside NYC) levy growth limited to the lesser of 2% or inflation (2% for 2026), overridable by 60% vote - a levy limit, not a cap on individual bills, which may rise more than 2%.

Source: state source cited in the research (see hub).

Closing costs — an estimate, labelled

The CFPB puts typical buyer closing costs at 2–5% of the loan (origination, appraisal, title, prepaid escrows). The default here is 3% and the field is yours to change — no official schedule exists, and this page will not pretend one does. New York transfer/recording charges sit inside that range for most purchases.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the same loan dearer here than in another state?

Property tax. At 1.42%, New York adds $557 a month on the median home — in the highest-tax states that rivals a full percentage point of interest rate.

Is the tax figure my actual bill?

No — it is the state's median effective rate applied to your price. Assessments, exemptions (homestead and others) and local rates move real bills both ways; the county assessor's figure governs.

What about PMI?

Below 20% down, lenders usually add private mortgage insurance (roughly 0.3–1.5% of the loan per year) until you reach ~20% equity. It is not in the default total — add it to the insurance line mentally if it applies.

Sources & verification. Property tax: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2025 1-year estimates (median real estate taxes paid ÷ median home value = effective rate — survey medians, labelled as such; your parcel’s bill follows its own assessment and local rates). Closing costs: CFPB guidance that buyers typically pay 2–5% of the loan in closing costs — an estimate range, adjustable on the page. Verified 4 November 2026.
