Village Reveals Reval Stats Plus Home Sales and Featured Listings

revalchartThis week Scarsdale Village managers released statistical charts analyzing the 2016 revaluation. They show changes in assessments by percentage and by neighborhood and can be viewed on the Village website here

The data shows that almost half of village homeowners were affected by the 2016 revaluation, with assessments for 49% of residents changing by more than 10%. The data also show that assessments for more homes went up than down. 31% received an increase of more than 10% and only 18% received a decrease of more than 10%.

A few observations about neighborhoods:
The largest decreases in assessments occurred in Heathcote with 26% decreasing more than 10% followed by Greenacres with 21% decreasing more than 10%.

As some have suspected, the largest percentage of increases on home assessments were in Edgewood, with 41% of homes having an increase above 10%. Quaker Ridge followed with with 35% of homes increasing more than 10%.

Residents of Fox Meadow have complained vehemently about receiving a neighborhood multiplier of 1.3 that increased their assessments; however, the data shows otherwise, with 57% of Fox Meadow residents' assessments changing a minimal with a minimal plus or minus10%.

Though Village Trustees originally stated that the second revaluation was to correct the outliers, we now see that assessments of 49% changed more than 10%. So this revaluation appears to be more of a redo than a tune-up.
