If you are a permanent Florida resident, you may be eligible for a homestead exemption, which typically saves homeowners $750–$1,000 in property taxes each year. Applications must be submitted by March 2, 2026.
• A $25,000 exemption applies to the first $50,000 of assessed value and includes school taxes.
• An additional exemption (up to $25,000 plus an inflation adjustment) may apply to assessed values between $50,000 and $75,000 (excluding school taxes).
• The homestead exemption also limits annual increases in assessed value to the lower of 3% or the Consumer Price Index. Once approved, your homestead exemption renews automatically as long as you continue to qualify.
Three ways to apply:
• File online at EXEMPTION SERVICES
• Visit one of our five service centers
• Apply online, print, and mail your application
Homeowners with a homestead exemption may also qualify for additional exemptions, including:
Civilian Disability, Disabled Florida Law Enforcement Officers & First Responders, Living Quarters for Parents or Grandparents (“Granny Flat”), Limited-Income Senior Citizen, Veterans Disability, and Widow/Widower Exemption.
