If you owned your home as of January 1, you're eligible for the Stephens-Day Homestead Exemption. Stephens-Day has been saving Chatham County residents money since 1999, by freezing your home’s taxable value to that of the base year, or the first year you owned it.
Find out how to keep your property taxes down, even if your property value goes up on this episode of Gov101.
