Phase 1 exposure / yr

$4,329,814

If none of the over-the-line units were a primary residence, the Phase 1 surcharge would total about $4,329,814 a year. That is a ceiling: owners who live there, lease for a year or more to a primary-resident tenant, or house an immediate family member owe nothing. See every exemption.

Phase 2 sensitivity

From July 1, 2028, Phase 2 moves condos and co-ops to a $5,000,000 threshold and the 0.8%, 1.05% and 1.3% schedule, measured under a new DOF assessed-value system that DOF has not finalized. It is scheduled, not settled. On today’s DOF values, 0 units in this building would sit at or above the $5,000,000 Phase 2 line.

Lease it out

A 12-month arm’s-length lease to a tenant who makes the apartment their primary residence removes the surcharge for that unit. See every exemption and what proves it.

More on the NYC pied-a-terre tax

This page is educational and is not legal or tax advice. Rates, thresholds and dates come from NY Tax Law Article 30-C (text of the statute) and the NYC Department of Finance (non-primary residence surcharge page), checked October 9, 2026. Values come from the DOF supplemental market value roll of July 24, 2026 (DOF property assessments). A value on the roll shows exposure, not liability: the roll carries no occupancy information, and DOF says appearing on it does not mean a property is subject to the surcharge. Confirm your own situation with a New York attorney or your accountant. Milton Coste, Licensed Real Estate Associate Broker, Keller Williams NYC, 360 Madison Avenue, 9th Floor, New York, NY 10017.
