Mobile Home Homestead Exemption Credit

If you have not previously filed a homestead exemption on your place of residence (Mobile or Manufactured Home), you have until March 31, 2009 to file. This homestead credit will be given on 2009 taxes payable in 2009.

For 2009 taxes payable in 2009, you can receive up to 45,000 off the residential assessed value of your property if the total residential assessed value is 75,000 or over. If the residential assessed value is below 75,000, then you would receive 60% off the residential assessed value. For example:

Residential
Assessed Value
Exemption
Amount
75,000 or over 45,000
75,000 45,000
70,000 42,000
65,000 39,000
60,000 36,000
50,000 30,000
40,000 24,000
30,000 18,000
20,000 12,000
10,000   6,000


You will also receive a percentage credit which varies from year to year. (Please note that these figures are subject to change depending on state legislation.)

Once a homestead exemption is filed on your residence, it only needs to be re-filed if you move.

Your exemptions need to be filed in the Auditor's Office, Room 208 of the Civic Center Complex (on the second floor.) Our office hours are 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM Monday through Friday. If you would like an exemption form mailed to you, please call 435-5302 and make the request.
