Property taxes

Saratoga County runs among the lower effective property-tax rates in the Capital Region - roughly 1.4%–1.7% of value a year. On a $355K home that's about $414–$503/mo. Your exact bill depends on the school district and exemptions like STAR and veterans' credits.

School districts

Clifton Park is served primarily by the Shenendehowa Central School District. The district drives a big part of your tax bill, so it's always worth confirming the exact lines for a specific address.

You may not need 20% down

Brian works with 3% & 5%-down conventional, FHA (3.5% down), zero-down VA, plus USDA in the rural stretches of Saratoga County, and SONYMA first-time-buyer loans with down-payment assistance. First-time buyer? He'll line up every credit you're eligible for.
