Take a look at your new tax statement and look here for some potential savings!

2024 St. Louis County property tax statements have started arriving in mailboxes, which makes this a good time to remind home owners (with homestead classification) about two state programs that could provide you a property tax refund.

The regular homestead credit refund is for homesteaders whose property taxes exceed a specified percentage of household income. For taxes payable in 2024, the homeowner’s household income must have been less than $135,410 in 2023 to be eligible.

The special homestead credit refund is for homestead properties where the net property tax amount increased by 12% or more since the previous year. The increase must be at least $100 and cannot be due to new construction. There is no income limitation for this refund. The maximum refund is $1,000.

Nearly 29% of residents in the Arrowhead region, which includes St. Louis County, qualified for a property tax refund in 2021, the most recent year for which information is available.
