Here's how a homestead exemption can translate to savings. A homestead valued at $400,000, taxed at 1%, is eligible for an exemption of $50,000. The property's taxable value will be $350,000, and the tax bill $3,500. Without the exemption, the property tax bill would be $4,000.
By decreasing the taxable market value, net property taxes are also decreased. For homesteads valued at $76,000 or less, the exclusion is 40% of the market value, creating a maximum exclusion of $30,400. The exclusion is reduced as property values increase, and phases out for homesteads valued at $413,800 or more.
