Property Tax Scam Alert for Brown County Seniors
The Brown County Auditor’s Office is warning residents about false YouTube videos claiming that there’s a new “Federal Senior Homeowner Tax Review Request” program. The program DOES NOT EXIST.
Ohio does offer real property tax relief through the Homestead Exemption for eligible seniors, permanently disabled individuals, and qualifying disabled veterans. Also, the owner-occupancy credit is available to Ohio homeowners who live in their property full-time.
Always rely on official government sources and never pay for forms or give personal information to unofficial websites.
For Homestead details or information call the Auditor's Office at 937-378-6398.
