Tennessee Property Tax Relief
Tennessee Property Tax Relief was launched in 1973 to aid low-income elderly and handicapped homeowners, in addition to disabled veterans or their respective partners, in paying their yearly taxes on their homes.
In a published article by Thunder 1320, property tax relief is available under Tennessee law for economically disadvantaged senior and handicapped residents, as well as disabled seasoned residents or any remaining marriages. This entails an official program subsidized by General Assembly financial backing. Tax collectors, including county trustees, acknowledge petitions from taxpayers who may be eligible.
