FAQ
What is the Homestead Act? An estate of homestead is a type of protection for a person's principal residence. There is an automatic homestead protection of one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars ($125,000) with respect to a home that does not declare a homestead exemption with the Registry of Deeds.
Under the Utah exemption system, homeowners can exempt up to $45,100 of their home or other property covered by the homestead exemption, such as a mobile home. You can use the homestead exemption to protect more than one parcel of land, but you can protect only up to one acre total. (Utah Code Ann. § 78B-5-504.)
The Massachusetts Homestead Act is a law under which a homeowner is protected by an Estate of Homestead. A homestead estate provides limited protection of the value of the home, up to $1,000,000, against unsecured creditor claims.
Filing a Declaration of Homestead costs thirty-five dollars ($35.00). Personal checks should be made payable to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
