Buyer
Beware

When buying real estate property, do not assume property taxes will remain the same. Any change in ownership may reset the assessed value of the property to full market value, which could result in higher property taxes. Please use our Tax Estimator to approximate your new property taxes.

The Property Appraiser does not send tax bills and does not set or collect taxes. Please visit the Tax Collector's website directly for additional information.

The Homestead Exemption saves property owners thousands of dollars each year. Do not jeopardize your Homestead by renting your property.

Before buying real estate property, be aware that non-ad valorem assessments may have a significant impact on your property tax bill.

Second Homestead Exemption - additional $25,000 exemption

The additional exemption will be applied automatically to any property that currently is receiving a homestead exemption. This additional exemption does not apply to the school board portion of your taxes, which can be up to 40% of the tax bill.

How the additional exemption is calculated

If the assessed value of your property is $50,000 or less, there will be no change in the exemptions for your property.  If the assessed value of your property is greater than $50,000, you will receive up to $25,000 for the extra homestead exemption.
