Homeowners Exemption

If you own and occupy a home (including manufactured homes) as your primary residence, you could qualify for a homeowner’s exemption for that home and up to one acre of land.

You only need to apply once. If approved, your exemption is good until any of the following happens:

  • You move and the home is no longer your primary residence
  • You no longer own the home
  • The home’s ownership changes (e.g., you put the home in a trust; you start to share ownership with someone else)

The homeowner’s exemption will exempt 50% of the value of your home and up to one acre of land (maximum: $100,000) from property tax.
