A homestead is the real property occupied by an Eligible Taxpayer as their primary residence. You can only claim one (1) primary residence statewide as your homestead.
If you purchased property that is your permanent residence in calendar year 2024 (or before), you may file for the 2025 Homestead Exemption through March 1, 2025. This exemption will be reflected on your Notice of Proposed Property Taxes we send out in mid-August 2025.

End of homesteading The Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 ended homesteading; by that time, federal government policy had shifted to retaining control of western public lands. The only exception to this new policy was in Alaska, for which the law allowed homesteading until 1986.
The new law established a three-fold homestead acquisition process: file an application, improve the land, and file for deed of title. Any U.S. citizen, or intended citizen, who had never borne arms against the U.S. Government could file an application and lay claim to 160 acres of surveyed Government land.
