What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Maryland

Hello my mortgage payment recently increased quite a bit due to property taxes. I cannot afford the increase I would like to know



What tax exemptions are available and who qualifies for them?

How can I become exempt from paying the property taxes or to get reduce the fees?

Thanks
:confused:

answer to Homestead

this is what I found:

Maryland Homestead
There is no homestead exemption. However, property that is held in tenancy by the entirety may be exempt from the debts owed by one spouse.


Do I have any other recourse? :(

Thanks sooooooooooooooooooo much

How old are you? In many counties if you are a senior citizen and income falls below a certain amount you may be eligible for a tax reduction. My parents get 50% off their property taxes b/c of this. My aunt gets 100% b/c of her income. Check with your local county government.
