Do Property Tax Exemptions Work the Same Way in Brookhaven?

Introduction

Many Brookhaven homeowners know about the STAR Program but are unsure whether other property tax exemptions are available. Understanding the different exemption programs helps homeowners become more familiar with the property tax system.

Common Exemptions

Depending on eligibility, homeowners may qualify for programs such as:

• Basic STAR
• Enhanced STAR
• Senior Citizens Exemption
• Veterans Exemption
• Disability Exemption
• Volunteer Firefighter and Ambulance Worker Exemption

Each program has its own eligibility requirements, and homeowners should review the official guidance before applying.

Why Review Your Eligibility?

Eligibility may change over time. A homeowner who did not qualify several years ago may become eligible later because of age, military service, or other qualifying circumstances.

Conclusion

Reviewing available exemptions periodically helps homeowners understand which property tax benefits may apply to their property.
