The Homestead Exemption reduces the taxable portion of your property's assessed value. With this exemption, the property's assessed value is reduced by $100,000. Most homeowners will save about $1,399 a year on their Real Estate Tax bill starting in 2025.
To keep things simple, let's say the assessed value of your home is $200,000 and your property tax rate is 1%. Your property tax bill would equal $2,000. But if you were eligible for a homestead tax exemption of $50,000, the taxable value of your home would drop to $150,000, meaning your tax bill would drop to $1,500.
