Please remove property tax for seniors it’s insane the amount of money we have to pay on property Tax when our income is fixed. I would really appreciate it and it would make a world of difference to this population after we have spent our lives paying taxes. Thank you

I totally agree with this. My elderly mother, who is 89 yrs. old, is paying over a $1000, on her property taxes every year, and she has to start saving, at the beginning of the year, in order to pay them, by the end of the year. Seniors should not have to pay any taxes, once they reach the age of 65.

Also, the county should not be able to take your property you have paid on for years because you are not able to pay property tax. Put in a levy for when the property is sold so you get your money. But don’t kick people out of their homes.

Property tax’s is not a federal tax it is local if this site is to give ideas for Federal policy’s you are addressing the wrong Government , speak to your county and town

I absolutely agree. My property tax has increased 125% in 10 years. I will be forced to sell my home if I can’t get some help with this very soon.

I agree for fixed income tax payers. Set an income limit. Not all. It is too much of a loss for local schools and governments.

Unfortunately the Federal Govt has nothing to do with property taxes, it’s the states and local school districts that impose these tax burdens and I’ve fought for years to get Texas to eliminate property taxes on seniors over 65 . They freeze them but the school district always find ways to increase them .
