"What Your Assessor Really Does" Video
Welcome to the Douglas County Assessor -
Register of Deeds website!
IF YOU HAVE NOT YET FILED YOUR 2023 HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION, YOU MAY STILL
BE ELIGIBLE!
In 1969, the Homestead Exemption Act was passed to provide property
tax relief to certain owners of residential property. Back then, it
provided for an exemption of $800 of actual value for residences valued at
$4,000 or more. The homestead exemption benefits have changed over
the years and currently provide for an exemption of all or part of real
property taxes for individuals 65 or over with limited income, veterans
and individuals with certain disabilities.
The Douglas County
Assessor/Register of Deeds office encourages any property owner in Douglas
County who feels they may qualify for the Nebraska Homestead Exemption to
file an application by June 30.
