Save on Your Property Taxes with a Homestead Exemption

Owning a home comes with a lot of responsibility, but it should also come with opportunities to save.

Many homeowners are eligible for a homestead exemption that can significantly lower their property taxes, yet the application process can feel confusing or easy to put off. That is where our Savings on Your Homestead workshop comes in.

This free, in-person workshop is designed to walk homeowners through the homestead exemption process step by step. Participants will learn how to apply, what benefits they may qualify for, and how taking a little time now can lead to meaningful savings year after year.

Whether you recently purchased your home or have owned it for years and are not sure if you are receiving every benefit available, this workshop offers clear guidance and helpful resources in a supportive setting. Our goal is to make sure homeowners have the information they need to protect their investment and keep housing costs affordable.

Join us for the Savings on Your Homestead workshop on Thursday, February 5 from 6 to 7:30 pm at Habitat for Humanity of Lake-Sumter, 1041 County Road 468, Leesburg, FL 34748-9331. The workshop is open to the public and free to attend.
