FAQ
Homestead Exemption: Every person who has legal or equitable title to real property in the State of Florida and who resides thereon and in good faith makes it his or her permanent home is eligible to receive a homestead exemption of up to $50,000. The first $25,000 applies to all property taxes.
An eligible owner's surviving spouse may continue to receive the Homestead Exemption if the eligible spouse dies and the spouse is at least 59 on the date of death.
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.
Yes, by using one person as claimant on each residence. Separate claims must be filed and the reason for having separate residences needs to be stated on the form.
Homestead is the home you live in as your primary residence. You can only have one homestead in Florida. The Florida Constitution says that if you are married, you are restricted from leaving your homestead property to anyone except your spouse.
Outside of your tax circumstances, having two primary residences is possible on the lender side. For example, a married couple could acquire two primary residences if each spouse buys a primary residence and keeps their mortgages separate. This would mean each spouse having sufficient income on their own to buy a home.
You are 65 years of age, or older, on January 1; You qualify for, and receive, the Florida Homestead Exemption; Your total 'Household Adjusted Gross Income' for everyone who lives on the property cannot exceed statutory limits.
The IRS prohibits married couples from claiming two primary residences for tax purposes. The designation of a primary residence, or “main home,” holds significant importance for homeowners due to the array of tax benefits tied to this status.
The spouse who holds the title of the property is responsible for applying for homestead exemption. Whether the house is owned through joint ownership with rights of survivorship, tenancy by the entirety, or another ownership type, Florida law preserves the rights of the owner's spouse.
Technically it's not possible to do that, because you must claim the homestead exemption in the state that is your permananent residence, and you can only have one state as permanent residence since you must spend more than 180 days in that place.
