In response to "can someone explain how the whole homestead act thing works for first time home buyers? supposedly i apply and it lowers my payments/taxes? -- nm" by colin

This stuff varies by state. The 'homestead exemption' is what TX calls there

My recollection is that you just need to file your exemption when/if you are eligible and it should reduce your property taxes a little. (But it's been a long time since I owned a home in TX and I don't remember the exact rules)
