Reminder to all: if you purchased your home during 2013, be sure to file you homestead exemption for your home. You are required to live there on January 1 to be able to file for this year. So, if you purchased at anytime during 2013, you can file. If you have never filed, you should file for this year and contact the tax office and possibly get a refund for the previous year. 

Filing the exemption is free and if you receive a letter to file it for you for a fee, please disregard. Go online to the county tax office, find the form and fill out and mail in. If you have any difficulty finding the form or filling out info, email me and I would be glad to walk you thru the process and at no charge to you. You only have to do this one time and it continues every year till you move.

Seniors, also take note that when you turn 65, you can file for you over 65 senior exemption, this saves a lot in taxes. You only have to do this once on your current home and not again until you move.
