First and foremost, Happy New Year!
If you were fortunate enough to purchase a home in 2021 its time to file for your Homestead Tax Exemption. Wait, what's the homestead tax exemption?
A homestead exemption removes part of your home's value from the taxation, as a result you'll have a lower tax bill. This is ONLY for your primary residence (i.e. no AirBNB's, rental properties, or vacation homes), and it can literally save you hundreds to thousands of dollars per year. More importantly and its FREE. As an added bonus, you only have to apply once and the tax deduction last as long as the home is your primary residence. The deadline to file is January 31st, 2022 so let's get started.
1. YES! You can file it yourself. Do not pay anyone to do this for you, ignore the mailers and advertisements you receive in the mail. Worst case scenario you may need to print off a document and mail it in if your county won't let you do it online.
