New York City's property tax system is facing a major overhaul as experts warn that its current method of valuing high-end co-ops and condos is woefully inaccurate.

With the city's budget facing increasing pressure, officials are racing to find a solution that will ensure fairness and accuracy in the tax system, while also generating much-needed revenue.
