Georgia Property Taxes: Know Your County & Your Exemptions
Forsyth County Taxes, Dawson County Taxes or Fulton County Taxes. Do you know what the exemptions are for Property Taxes in your county? It is an important factor to consider when deciding where to purchase your next home. For instance, did you know that certain Senior Citizens receive huge exemptions on their property taxes in Forsyth County? Homeowners in Forsyth County who are 65 years of age on or before January 1 are entitled to a full exemption in the school general and school bond tax categories. In addition, Forsyth County offers two local exemptions to disabled taxpayers. For more information on Forsyth County Property Tax exemptions, visit http://ta.forsythco.com. For more information on Fulton County Property Tax exemptions, visit www.fultonassessor.org. For more information on Dawson County Property Tax exemptions, visit www.dawsontaxassessors.org
And, don't forget to keep paperwork for your annual federal or state income tax return -- you can often deduct the property taxes, points and interest paid on a mortgage. Set up a consultation with a tax accountant to learn more about the restrictions on these types of deductions.
