Can I apply for a Homestead Exemption AFTER March 1st?

August 30, 2017 by Chris Ryder

I’ve been getting this question lately. Everyone just got their tax notice and ‘remembered’ that they forgot to apply for a homestead exemption this year, so…

Short answer is No, BUT you CAN apply for for the exemption to be granted retroactively from the Value Adjustment Board. The method is similar to contesting the value of your property. I copied this from the Palm Beach County Property Appraisers web site…

“September 15, 2017, is the deadline to file a petition with the Value Adjustment Board to challenge the market value of your property or to seek an exemption or classification if you missed the March 1 application deadline.”

NOT only will you save 50k in the value and +/-1k (2%) which is the tax on it every year but you’ll lock in this years value for the 3% max increase in the taxable value going forward.

YES, THIS MOST DEFINITELY WORTH YOUR TIME. Just remember you are declaring your homestead on or before January 1, 2017 so be prepared to show this to the VAB.

     I highly recommend R & R Realty.  Chris worked with me to over a period of years to find what I wanted.  He always responded quickly to my phone calls or texts.  Chris always pointed out all the positives of a property but also possible negatives or things I hadn't thought of.  It was a pleasure working with him.

     Chris and Nicole Ryder are true professionals!  They both helped my husband and I find our apartment when we were new to South Florida and were an excellent source of information about the Palm Beach Gardens/Juno Beach/Jupiter area.  When we decided to buy a property two years later, we came back to R&R Realty without hesitation.  Chris patiently worked with us for many months as we slowly but surely developed a sense of what we wanted.  He went above and beyond, giving us not only real estate advice but also engineering tips and personal recommendations.  We ultimately found a house we love thanks to Chris's diligence and tireless efforts on our behalf.  I can't recommend R&R Realty highly enough!

     Nicole Ryder (and Chris) provided excellent service  throughout entire process of listing and selling condo in Juno Beach.  Nicole was very helpful and always acted in our best interest re listing details, setting viewing appointments, responding to offers and assisting with closing requirements.
We most appreciated their local knowledge and support re Florida real estate transaction requirements being non Florida residents.  (Canada)
We would highly recommend R&R Realty!

     Chris is the very best realtor I have ever worked with anywhere in the country, by a long shot! Being from out of state, he spent countless
hours previewing property, had a clear understanding what I was looking for, has the knowledge of an engineer/architect in evaluating structures plus is very familiar with the area. He is very patient, and never "sells" A true rare professional.

The Quay SOUTH building allows one cat […]

Why Would Someone From the United Kingdom Want to Buy Property in Florida?

October 31, 2024 By Nicole Ryder

Having grown up in England and currently living in Palm Beach County, Florida, I would have to answer this question with a question, why wouldn’t someone from the UK want to buy property in Florida? The most obvious reason to purchase property in Florida is the weather. Florida is called ‘The Sunshine State’ for a reason, the weather is warm and wonderful, bright blue skies […]
