Who should apply?
Homeowners purchasing a new or existing home who occupy their home as their principal residence may qualify for the homestead classification. This classification may provide homeowners with property tax savings.
When should I apply?
To qualify for the full-year homestead classification homeowners must own and occupy their home on or before January 2nd. The filing deadline is January 15th.
Property that does not qualify for homestead on January 2nd, but is purchased and owner-occupied on or before December 1st may qualify for a mid-year homestead classification.
The filing deadline is December 15th. These dates may be found on the Property Tax Calendar.
How do I apply?
You have two options:
1. Come into the Assessing Department at the Maple Grove Government Center , or
2. Complete a homestead application and submit by mail or fax.
Please provide the following when filing:
- Copy of the warranty deed or contract for deed. (If property is sold on a contract for deed, a certificate of real estate value must accompany application.)
- Copy of the Certificate of Real Estate Value.
- Social security numbers for all individuals listed on the deed. (A social security number would also be required for a spouse that is not listed on the deed.)
