Many states provide property tax exemptions to individuals simply because they've had a certain number of birthdays. For example, Kansas has a Safe Senior property tax exemption, which provides tax relief to homeowners who are at least 65 years old and meet income qualifications.
Person Age 65 or Older (or Surviving Spouse) Exemption An over 65 exemption is available to property owners the year they become 65 years old. By state law, this exemption is $10,000 for school districts. Other taxing units may adopt this exemption and determine its amount.
Homestead exemptions are a valuable way for homeowners to reduce the amount of property taxes they owe. These exemptions can apply to a portion of a property's value, resulting in a lower tax bill.
On Tuesday, Tarrant County Commissioners increased the homestead property tax exemption from 10 percent to 20 percent.
To qualify for the general residence homestead exemption, a home must meet the definition of a residence homestead and an individual must have an ownership interest in the property and use the property as the individual's principal residence.
