Qualifications needed
Prior to appointment, the candidate for Assessor must meet the minimum qualification standards for sole appointed assessor as set forth in 20 NYCRR Rules for Real Property Tax Administration Section 8188-2.2, as evidenced by a copy of the letter from the Office of Real Property Tax Services approving the candidate’s qualifications. Such qualifications are specified as: (1) (i) graduation from high school, or possession of an accredited high school equivalency diploma; and (ii) two years of satisfactory full-time paid experience in an occupation involving the valuation of real property, such as assessor, appraiser, valuation data manager, real property appraisal aide or the like. Such experience shall be deemed satisfactory if it is demonstrated that the experience primarily was gained in the performance of one or more of the following tasks: collection and recording of property inventory data, preparation of comparable sales analysis reports, preparation of signed valuation or appraisal estimates or reports using cost, income or market data approaches to value. Mere listing of real property for potential sale, or preparation of asking prices for real estate for potential sale, using multiple listing reports or other published asking prices is not qualifying experience; or (2) graduation from an accredited two-year college and one year of the experience described in subparagraph(1)(ii); or (3) graduation from an accredited four-year college and six months of the experience described in subparagraph (1)(ii); or graduation from an accredited four-year college and a written commitment from the county director that the county will provide training in assessment administration, approved by the NYS Office of Real Property Tax Services (ORPTS), within a six-month period; or (4) certification by NYS Office of Real Property Tax Services (ORPTS) as a candidate for assessor.
