Local records and offices
These offices serve the Town or County listed on each card. Bring the property address and the specific record or notice when you contact them.
Town of Ticonderoga · local assessment information
Start with the Town Assessor for a question about assessed value or Town assessment records. Assessment information is different from a tax balance, a recorded deed, or a court case.
Town offices are listed at 132 Montcalm Street, Ticonderoga, NY 12883.
Town of Ticonderoga · Town tax-collection contact
Use the Town Clerk or the Town of Ticonderoga entry in the County tax-collector directory for Town tax-collection questions. This is separate from the Assessor’s valuation work and Essex County delinquent-tax matters.
Town offices are listed at 132 Montcalm Street, Ticonderoga, NY 12883.
Essex County · tax maps, GIS, and assessment-roll support
Use Real Property Tax Services for County tax-map and GIS support and information about its work with local assessors. It is not the Town tax collector or the County Treasurer’s delinquent-tax route.
Mail: PO Box 217, 7551 Court Street, Elizabethtown, NY 12932.
Essex County · County tax matters and tax-deed information
Contact the County Treasurer about County tax payments, delinquent-tax or tax-deed matters, and the County’s short-term-rental information. A County tax notice is different from a Town tax bill or a mortgage-foreclosure notice.
Mail: PO Box 217, 7551 Court Street, Elizabethtown, NY 12932.
Essex County · deeds and recorded County land documents
Use the County Clerk’s records route to look for a recorded deed or other County land document. It is not the office for a property valuation or tax-bill balance. If a notice concerns a court case or judgment, start with the court and case contact named on that notice.
County Government Center, 7551 Court Street, Elizabethtown, NY 12932.
Essex County · local estate-court contact route
For an estate-related question, the County directory lists the Surrogate Court as a local contact route. The correct venue and who may sign depend on the estate and property records, so use the actual court papers when you ask.
Chief Clerk: 518-873-3384. County Government Center, 7551 Court Street, Elizabethtown, NY 12932. Confirm current counter details before visiting.
Town of Ticonderoga · permits, building inspection, and local code questions
Use the Town’s page for local building-inspection and permit questions, including questions about a Town notice, a renovation, property use, or a tenant complaint. The Town’s ordinance index lists local laws on nuisance properties and unsafe buildings.
Town offices are listed at 132 Montcalm Street, Ticonderoga, NY 12883.
Local rules and next steps
New York State charges $2 for each $500 of the sale price, or part of $500, when the price is more than $500. That is $400 on a $100,000 sale before any local tax or exemption. The seller normally pays the State tax, but the sale agreement can provide otherwise; a local transfer tax may add to it. A separate 1% mansion tax generally applies to residential sales of $1 million or more and is normally paid by the buyer.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including New York State real estate transfer tax and any applicable local real estate transfer taxes. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Essex County says short-term rentals must have a valid Certificate of Occupancy and remit taxes monthly for nights when guests occupy the property. If you rent the house short-term, use the County Treasurer’s page to check the certificate and tax process for your property.
The Town’s Code Enforcement and Building Inspection page lists permit routes for renovations and property use, along with a Tenant Complaint Form. The Town law index includes local laws titled “Nuisance Properties” and “Unsafe Buildings.” If you have a Town notice or a permit question, give the Town the property address and the notice so it can point you to the right record or next step.
