Description

Description

The J-51 R tax abatement program is an incentive for co-ops and condos in New York City to offset costs of major building repairs and upgrades, including facade repairs and roof replacements. The program allows eligible owners to offset 70% of qualifying capital improvement costs against their property tax bill over a minimum of 12 years. The current program is set to expire on June 30, 2026, and advocates are pressing lawmakers to extend and update the program to help buildings meet city regulations on climate and infrastructure, expand eligibility, reduce application fees, and address the tight timeline for completing work.
