The taxes went up HOW MUCH??
🏡 THE LISTING SAYS $11,500 IN PROPERTY TAXES… BUT YOU COULD END UP PAYING $15,000! 😳🚨
Imagine buying a home here on Long Island.
The price is right. ✅
The mortgage payment works. ✅
The property taxes seem reasonable. ✅
But then you discover something unexpected…
THE SELLER HAS PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT NOT QUALIFY FOR!
Here’s what every Long Island buyer should know:
🏡 Senior citizens may qualify for property tax exemptions.
🇺🇸 Eligible veterans may receive tax reductions.
⭐ STAR provides school property tax relief to qualifying homeowners.
💰 The seller’s exemptions may not apply to you.
📈 Your future property tax bill could be higher than the amount advertised!
COMMUNITY JOE’S ADVICE:
Before purchasing a home, investigate the property taxes!
Don’t just rely on the listing.
Review the tax records, ask about exemptions, and confirm your potential tax responsibility with the local assessor.
Because an unexpected $3,500 annual difference means approximately $292 MORE every month!
🎙️ That’s the Real Real Estate Story!

Use Days on Market to your Advantage Please!
🏡 STOP CHASING EVERY NEW LISTING ON LONG ISLAND! 🚨
What if the best opportunity isn’t the house that JUST hit the market?
Imagine this…
A home comes on the market for $850,000.
Within days, buyers are lining up.
Multiple offers. Bidding wars. Competition everywhere!
But there’s another house in the same neighborhood that’s been sitting on the market for 75 DAYS! 😳
WHY IS NOBODY LOOKING AT THAT ONE?
Here’s something smart homebuyers should understand:
📊 DAYS ON MARKET (DOM) CAN BE A POWERFUL NEGOTIATING TOOL!
A home that’s been sitting longer may offer opportunities that a brand-new listing doesn’t.
💰 Potential price negotiations
🏡 Less competition from other buyers
📉 Sellers who have already reduced their asking price
🤝 More flexibility on terms or closing dates
🔍 Time to carefully evaluate the property
But remember: a high DOM doesn’t automatically mean a home is a bargain. You still need to review comparable sales and investigate why it hasn’t sold.
COMMUNITY JOE’S ADVICE:
Don’t just ask your real estate agent to show you the newest homes.
Ask them to show you the homes that have been sitting for 30, 60, or even 90 days!
Because sometimes the best opportunity isn’t the house everyone wants…
IT’S THE HOUSE EVERYONE OVERLOOKED! 🏡
🎙️ That’s the Real Real Estate Story!
