Summary

HB 913 amends the state code to increase the ad valorem tax exemption for qualified homeowners who are 65 years of age or older, raising the maximum exemption from $7,500 to $12,500 beginning in 2027. It adds a sliding exemption schedule based on assessed value and splits the benefit evenly between school district and county general‑fund taxes. The change is intended to give senior homeowners greater property‑tax relief.
