Hello,
I am co-owner of a home with my parents that was bought in February 2020. As I understand it, I have to wait until January 1, 2021 to apply for homestead exemption. Is that accurate? Or can I apply now?
Next, even if I don't qualify for homestead exemption, may I still protest the property value appraisal? I wanted to protest based on based on the price I bought the home for and homes comps of similar homes in surrounding areas. Can I do that? What is the deadline for that?
Will appreciate any help. Thank you!
