TO ALLOW FOR PROPERTY OWNED BY A TRUST OR A LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY TO QUALIFY AS A HOMESTEAD FOR PURPOSES OF THE PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION FOR DISABLED VETERANS IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.
House Bill 1809 (HB 1809) expands the eligibility for the property tax exemption for disabled veterans. This bill allows a property to qualify as a homestead for this exemption even if it is owned by a trust or a limited liability company (LLC), rather than directly by the individual. This change directly affects disabled veterans who hold their primary residence through these types of legal entities.
