Property tax relief for seniors and disabled
The state of Ohio has expanded its Homestead Exemption to include all seniors and qualified disabled individuals, regardless of income. These homeowners will be able to shield up to $25,000 of their property value from property tax.
To qualify, an Ohio homeowner must be:
-at least 65 years or older, or will reach age 65 during the current tax year
OR
-certified totally and permanently disabled as of Jan 1st of the current tax year, regardless of age
OR
-the surviving spouse of a qualified homeowner and at least 59 years old on the date of the spouse's death.
In order to take advantage of this, you must apply with your local county auditor by October 1st, 2007!
