What is Homestead Exemption?
Thank you for trusting your real estate needs to the Petersen Partners team. As part of our ongoing commitment to great service, we want to remind you to file for your homestead exemption.
A homestead exemption allows a partial exemption on a portion of the assessed value of your home. Georgia law provides that every homeowner is eligible to claim homestead exemption as a tax benefit that can amount to a considerable annual savings for the homeowner.
To qualify for the property tax exemption, the homeowner must file for homestead exemption either in person or by mail depending on the County in which you reside.
We appreciate your business and trust you are enjoying your new home. We also hope that you will remember us if you have any friends or relatives in need of assistance in buying, selling, leasing, financing, or insuring a home.
