Property Tax Homestead Exemptions: An Analysis of the Variance in Take-Up Rates Across Neighborhoods
Hundreds of thousands of homeowners eligible for Florida’s homestead exemption fail to claim it, losing out on significant property tax savings. Large differences exist in take-up percentages across neighborhoods. This paper relates these differences to a wide range of neighborhood descriptors. Take-up rates are lower where incomes are lower and a higher percentage of residents are from minority groups. Take-up rates are also correlated with neighborhood characteristics that may register knowledge of the exemption and transaction costs incurred in applying for the exemption.
期刊介绍:
The goal of the National Tax Journal (NTJ) is to encourage and disseminate high quality original research on governmental tax and expenditure policies. Articles published in the regular March, June and September issues of the journal, as well as articles accepted for publication in special issues of the journal, are subject to professional peer review and include economic, theoretical, and empirical analyses of tax and expenditure issues with an emphasis on policy implications. The NTJ has been published quarterly since 1948 under the auspices of the National Tax Association (NTA). Most issues include an NTJ Forum, which consists of invited papers by leading scholars that examine in depth a single current tax or expenditure policy issue. The December issue is devoted to publishing papers presented at the NTA’s annual Spring Symposium; the articles in the December issue generally are not subject to peer review.
