Save Money on Your Property Taxes
The Senior Freeze Exemption application is now available online. This exemption offers significant savings for senior homeowners. To be eligible you must be over 65 years of age and have a total household annual income of $65,000 or less in the 2024 calendar year. As a reminder, you must apply every year for these savings.
The Senior Freeze Exemption provides property tax savings by freezing the equalized assessed value (EAV) of your property. This does not automatically freeze the amount of your tax bill, only the EAV remains at the fixed amount. Tax rates may change, resulting in a change on the tax bill.
When you claim exemptions on your home, you unlock real savings that help lower your property tax bill. Don't miss out on property tax savings. Applying for the Senior Freeze Exemption online is easy and free.
Are you unsure if you already have exemptions applied? Review your property details by entering your property index number or address. Once entered, scroll down and select 'Exemption History & Status' to view your active and historic property exemptions.
