Assessment of Inherited Homestead Property

Summary

The joint resolution would let the legislature, by general law, treat the transfer of a homestead home through inheritance as not a change in ownership for tax assessment purposes. This would keep the property’s assessed value the same after it passes to heirs, protecting them from a sudden tax increase. The measure failed, dying in the Ways & Means Committee.
