A homestead exemption is a legal provision that can help you pay less taxes on your home. If you own and occupy your home, you may be eligible for the general residential homestead exemption. Exemptions are also available for disabled veterans, seniors over the age of 65, people with qualifying disabilities, and some surviving spouses.
