Homestead Help
Filing your Texas residential homestead exemption is a great way for you to fight rising property taxes. To be eligible for the homeowner's exemption, the home must be for an individual, not a corporation and it must be your primary residence.
Filing this exemption is free and it's easy for you to do on your own. Plus, it can save you on taxes and keep your assessed value from increasing more than 10%! Below are step-by-step directions on filing your residential homestead exemption. If you have any questions, we are here to help! If we can ever be of any assistance to you, your family, or your friends, please call us at 214-404-9573 or email us at tanya@estanciagroupdfw.com.
