If I'm 65 or older or disabled, do I receive lower taxes?
If you are a home-owner and your home is your principal place of
residence and you are 65 or older or disabled, you will qualify to have
your property value frozen. This means that the property value on your
home will not increase unless there is an addition
to the home. The tax amount may change if there is a change in the millage rate, but the value will stay the same. Simply bring or send a copy of your driver’s license or any proof of age or your
disability papers and the Real Estate Assessor be happy to apply the Freeze to your
property values. You can also contact them at 479.784.1516.
What about city liens?
