property tax exemptions; inflation adjustment

Homeowners keep access to tax relief

Arizona’s property tax exemption helps eligible widows and widowers, people with total and permanent disabilities, and veterans with disabilities. The assessment limit is $28,459 and is adjusted beginning in tax year 2026 based on average annual increases in Arizona’s federal home-price index over the two most recent complete state fiscal years. The $4,188 exemption amount continues to be adjusted using the gross domestic product price measure. Claimants must also meet income and other eligibility rules.
