King County Announces Homeowner Improvement Exemption
The King County Assessor’s Office has announced the Homeowner Improvement Exemption Program. What is this program? Well, owner-occupied single-family residences that are remodeled or renovated may be eligible for property tax relief. If approved, owners who apply timely will receive an exemption of up to 30% of the original structure value for three years. The dwelling must be owner-occupied and have not received a Home Improvement Exemption in the past five years. The application for a home improvement exemption must be filed with the Department of Assessments before the remodel or addition is completed.
To qualify, you must meet specific requirements. Here is a link to the application. For more information, please get in touch with the Assessor’s Office at (206)296-7300 or email HomeImp.DestProp@kingcounty.gov.
