FAQ
If your homestead property has an assessed value from $50,001 through $74,999, you will receive an additional exemption proportionately up to $24,999. All homestead property with an assessed value of $75,000 or more will receive the full $25,000.
Both owners must sign the application form and, if both owners otherwise qualify, the homestead exemption will be granted for the entire home. This process is as simple as any other married couple or single individual applying for the exemption.
The U.S. tax code provides tax advantages for married couples who file jointly and own a home. While duplicating these tax benefits with another residence would help your bottom line when you file taxes, it's not possible to claim two primary residences because of tax regulations from the IRS.
(5) Property held jointly will support multiple claims for homestead tax exemption; however, only one exemption will be allowed each residential unit and no family unit will be entitled to more than one exemption.
The Florida Save Our Homes provision allows a homeowner to “port” or transfer all or a portion of the tax benefit, up to $500,000.
However, to be eligible for the homestead exemption, the owner must be a permanent resident of Florida and have a present intent of living at the property. Additionally, the owner must apply for the exemption. Generally, a married couple is entitled to only one homestead exemption.
You cannot transfer your homestead exemption when you move from a previous Florida homestead to a new Florida homestead. However, you may be able to transfer all or part of your homestead assessment difference.
You must file a new application for your new residence. While your homestead exemption is not transferable, you can transfer the accumulated Save Our Homes benefits (as defined by law) from one homestead to another homestead, anywhere in Florida.
