2024 Homestead Exemption
ll qualified Florida residents are eligible to receive a Homestead Exemption
on their homes, condominiums, co-op apartments, and certain mobile
Ahome lots. To qualify for Homestead Exemption, you must own and make
the property your permanent residence on January 1 of the year for which you are
applying for this valuable exemption. Pursuant to Florida law, all assessments and
exemptions are based upon the status of the property on January 1. If you acquired
the property as your permanent residence in 2023 and have not applied for
Homestead Exemption, you can apply for 2024 exemptions at any time – there is
no need to wait until 2024 to file your exemption application. You can easily apply
online at https://web.bcpa.net/bcpaclient/#/HomesteadExemption
The timely deadline to file for all 2024 exemptions is March 1, 2024. You must
make the property your permanent residence by January 1, 2024 in order to
qualify; however, you have until March 1 to timely file your application with the
property appraiser’s office. The late filing deadline for all 2024 exemptions is
September 18, 2024. For information about all the other exemptions available,
please visit the “Exemptions & Classifications” page on our website https://web.

Once approved, your Homestead Exemption automatically renews each year
provided there is no change in the ownership or use of the property. If you have
already applied and been approved for Homestead Exemption at your current
property, you do not need to reapply for this exemption. You will receive a
Homestead Exemption renewal card next month to keep for your records.
BCPA Gives Back
In the spirit of giving, our office recently participated in a turkey giveaway and held
a food drive to benefit The Pantry of Broward County. The Pantry of Broward County
is a “one-stop shop” for seniors (age 60+) struggling to live on low-fixed incomes
and to help grandparents raising their grandchildren. BCPA employees donated
2,358 cans of food to The Pantry to help during the holiday season.
