FAQ
HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS You must be a US Citizen or permanent US Resident and a Florida resident as of January 1st 3. You cannot be claiming or receiving any type of tax exemption on any other property in the U.S. 4.
While the specifics can vary by state, generally, homestead exemptions are only available for an individual or family's primary residence. This means you cannot claim homestead exemptions in multiple states.
HOMESTEAD PROTECTIONS—STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS The exemption covers up to $550,000 equity in the property. Furthermore, the federal bankruptcy law (11 United States Code 522) acknowledges that a state law providing for a homestead exemption, such as Nevada's, will be honored in most proceedings.
To be eligible for the homestead exemption, State law requires a person to declare a homestead and to record that declaration with the county recorder of the county in which the property is located.
Most states have homestead exemptions except New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Some states have other homestead laws such as provisions that protect surviving spouses from creditors.
Originally intended to protect families from losing their farms, homestead laws now apply to homes, condos and residential cooperatives. Nevada's homestead law calls for an automatic exemption that protects equity in a home up to $550,000.
