APPLY FOR THE HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION ONLINE

It’s Fast, Easy, and Secure

Miami-Dade County’s new Property Appraiser, Carlos Lopez-Cantera, is proud to announce and put into service a 100% online homestead application process. Miami-Dade Homeowners can now go online to complete the entire application process for Florida’s Homestead Exemption and for the Homestead Assessment Difference, commonly referred to as Portability.

The Homestead Exemption (HEX) provides for a $50,000 reduction in the assessed value of a homeowners’ primary residence, saving property owners thousands of dollars in property taxes annually. Portability allows a homeowner to transfer a part or all of their HEX savings, when they move from one home to another. Homeowners can now visit www.miamidade.gov/pa, where they can fully complete and submit their application directly to the Property Appraiser’s Office.

Applications for 2013 property tax exemptions are due by March 1, 2013
