Florida Homestead Exemption For Property Taxes.
THE FLORIDA HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION
In the state of Florida, a $25,000 exemption is applied to the first $50,000 of your property’s assessed value if your property is your permanent residence and you owned the property on January 1 of the tax year. This exemption applies to all taxes, including school district taxes. An additional exemption of up to $25,000 will be applied if your property’s assessed value is between at least $50,000 and $75,000. This exemption is not applied to school district taxes.
Application for all exemptions must be made between January 1 and March 1 of the tax year. However, at
the option of the property appraiser, original homestead exemption applications may be accepted after March 1,
but will apply to the succeeding year. Application should be made to the property appraiser’s office. Subsequent
yearly renewal of exemption status may be made by mail. Failure to make application by March 1 of the tax year
shall constitute a waiver of the exemption privilege for that year.
