Florida Homestead Exemption

Do you own your home? Have you applied for a homestead exemption? You may be missing out on a several hundred dollar tax exemption. A homestead exemption reduces the taxable value of your permanent residence by an amount up to $25,000. A homestead exemption can save you approximately $400-$450 per year on your annual ad valorem taxes. Every person who has a legal or equitable title to real property in Florida and who has recorded the title instrument in public records of the county where application is made is eligible to file. You may apply at either the Property Appraiser’s Office, 151-D NE Eglin Parkway, Fort Walton Beach or The Property Appraiser’s Office, Okaloosa County County Courthouse, 101 E. James Lee Blvd., Rm 104, Crestview.
