General Residence Homestead Exemption. The general residence homestead exemption is a $100,000 school tax exemption. This means that your school taxes are calculated as if your home is worth $100,000 less than its appraised value. For example, if your home is appraised at $300,000, you will only be taxed on $200,000.
Senior and Disabled Exemptions. If you are over 65 or disabled, you qualify for an additional $10,000 school tax exemption. This exemption may be larger in some districts.
Veteran Homestead Exemptions. The veteran homestead exemption is based on the veteran’s disability rating.
