Homestead Exemption is an exemption of $1,000 of the assessed valuation. This can be a savings of $75 to $125 depending on which area of the county you are located.
The homestead of any person in this State, not within any city or town, shall consist of not more than one hundred sixty acres of land, which may be in one or more parcels, to be selected by the owner.
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.
Homestead Exclusion Minimum Age 65 years; OR Totally & Permanently Disabled - No Minimum Age. Combined Income Limit $37,900 (Applicant & Spouse) Permanent Residence. Must Meet Qualifications January 1. One Time Application Required. Application Deadline is June 1.
