State property tax exemptions

Most states offer property tax exemptions or reductions for disabled veterans. The amount and eligibility vary enormously by state — from a few hundred dollars to a complete exemption on a primary residence. Many states require 100% rating or P&T.

Pro tip

Check your state’s specific rules. Some states (Texas, Florida, Illinois, California, others) provide complete property tax exemption at 100% P&T. Others provide tiered reductions at 30%, 50%, 70%. The annual savings can be $3,000–$15,000 depending on your home value and state. Apply at your county assessor’s office; do not assume VA will tell your state.
