Homestead Exemptions

DEADLINE IS APRIL 1ST

The City desires to provide additional relief to citizens 65 years of age or older by increasing the current homestead exemption for such citizens from $10,000 to $25,000 and by capping the value of a homestead for taxing purposes at the assessed value of the home when the eligible homeowner reaches the age of 70 years.

You may qualify for a homestead exemption (Senior Exemptions Do Not Apply Automatically) from City of Fairburn Property Tax.

Should you qualify, the taxable value of your property will be reduced by $25,000.

To qualify you must:

1. Be 65 or older by April 1st of this year
2. Live in the home as your primary residence
