The Latest News and Information on the Tampa Real Estate Market, every Day!
Florida Law allows for up to $50,000 to be deducted from the assessed valuation for a primary residence, which can significantly lower your property tax bill.
In order to qualify for the Homestead Exemption, you must file an appication with the property appraisers office. You need only file once, and must reside in the home, on January 1, of the first year you are claiming the Homestead Exemption.
In Hillsborough County, in order to qualify, you must file your application prior to March 2, 2009.
You can download the forms, here, and then see the list of County offices where you can file the application for the Homestead Exemption.
