Property Tax Help Available through LHOME

Property Tax bills will be mailed to homeowners on November 1. If you know now that there will be a financial hardship created in paying that tax bill, there is help available. If you act BEFORE the end of November, you may even take advantage of a 2% discount on the bill.

LHOME spreads the repayment over 12 to 24 months. To qualify for this loan you must be the owner and occupant of the property being taxed and you must have a source of income which will allow repayment over time.

LHOME may also help answer questions about homestead and disability exemptions, if you qualify and have not previously applied.

Contact LHOME's chief loan officer Dan Farris: 502-657-1297 and dfarris@lhomeky.org.
