There are two types of Homestead Exemptions available: Regular - allows up to $300.00 credit on a home with a $75,000 or more appraised value.Special - is for residents who are 65 years of age before January 1 of each year or who are 100% disabled. This exempts up to $75,000 of the appraised value.

Help for House Flippers

In an effort to get as many foreclosures off the market, the FHA has lifted some restrictions on investors who wish to "flip" a house. Now private companies that assess and purchase foreclosures  are encouraged to buy more foreclosed properties and sell them to buyers using an FHA loan.  Of course some rules apply, a house cannot be flipped for more than a 20% profit and this exemption only lasts a year.  This is a great opportunity if you have an interest in getting into house flipping.
