Ohio homestead exemption

  • Ohio's homestead exemption gives owners 65 or older with income of $41,000 or less a credit equal to the taxes on $29,700 of market value for tax year 2026, adjusted each year for inflation.
  • Apply to the county auditor by December 31 of the year you want the exemption; you do not reapply each year.

This is the property tax homestead exemption, not the homestead exemption that protects a home from creditors in bankruptcy.

Ohio property tax questions

Does Ohio have a homestead exemption?

Ohio's homestead exemption gives owners 65 or older with income of $41,000 or less a credit equal to the taxes on $29,700 of market value for tax year 2026, adjusted each year for inflation. The calculator does not subtract it: the rates already reflect the exemptions owners received.

Why might a Ohio tax bill differ from this estimate?

The rate is what owner-occupiers in Ohio paid on average in 2020 through 2024, as a share of their homes' value. An actual bill depends on the home's assessed value, the levies where it sits and the exemptions its owner claims.

What the calculator leaves out

  • The rate is the total real estate tax owner-occupiers reported paying divided by the total value they reported for their homes, not a tax rate set by law.
  • The rate already reflects the exemptions, caps and credits typical owner-occupiers received, so the calculator does not subtract a homestead exemption again.
  • An actual bill depends on the home's assessed value, the levies where it sits and the exemptions its owner claims.
  • Survey estimates for small counties have wide margins of error.

Rates and medians are American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates: taxes owners paid in those years, not 2026 bills.
