Did you bought a home last year? Congrats, we hope you are loving your new digs!!! As you know, buying a home can provide a huge tax advantage, and we want to be sure that as a new homeowner you know you may be eligible for a Homestead Exemption as it can save you a boat load of money this year.
Georgia allows homeowners to claim a Homestead Exemption as a tax benefit that could amount to considerable annual savings each year. In some counties, they have increased the amounts of their homestead exemptions. To qualify for the property tax exemption the homeowner must occupy the residence and file for Homestead Exemption with the county tax commissioner’s office. Filing deadlines and requirements vary by county.
For your convenience, we have listed links and the phone numbers to most major Georgia county Tax Commissioner offices, so that you may file for exemption.
