Texas homeowners with a homestead exemption may need to reapply due to a 2023 law requiring appraisal districts to verify exemptions every five years.
If your exemption is in question, you’ll receive a notice to reapply—otherwise, no action is needed.
Homestead exemptions lower a home’s taxable value, reducing property tax bills.
In 2024, Tarrant County increased its exemption to the state maximum of 20%, automatically applying the savings to eligible homeowners without requiring reapplication.
To confirm your exemption status, check your appraisal district’s website or contact them directly.
