Formerly Homeowners Property Tax Assistance Program (HPTAP)
If you cannot pay your taxes for financial reasons, you may be able to reduce or eliminate your current year’s property tax obligation with the Homeowners Property Exemption (HOPE). HOPE provides an opportunity for homeowners to be exempt from their current year property taxes based on household income or circumstances. Eligibility for the HOPE is based on whether you own and occupy your home as your primary residence and your household income or circumstances.
