Homestead:
To qualify for the general residence homestead exemption, a home must meet the definition of a residence homestead, and an individual must have an ownership interest in the property and use the property as the individual's principal residence. An applicant is required to state that he or she does not claim an exemption on another residence homestead in or outside of Texas. If the property owner acquires the property after Jan. 1, they may receive the general residence homestead exemption for the applicable portion of the tax year immediately on qualification of the exemption if the previous owner did not receive the same exemption for the tax year.
Contact the appraisal District, for more information regarding eligibility. 1-979-921-0060
