Disabled veteran property tax calculator
Texas is one of the most veteran-friendly states for property taxes. A 100% disabled veteran can owe zero on their homestead — see your potential savings.
Texas property-tax relief for disabled veterans scales with your VA disability rating. At 100% (or Individual Unemployability), the residence homestead is fully exempt — you pay $0 property tax on your home.
Estimated property tax
Estimate only. Partial-rating exemptions are fixed dollar amounts ($5,000 at 10–29% up to $12,000 at 70%+) applied to assessed value; the 100% rating fully exempts the homestead. Some counties allow combining exemptions; rules and combinations vary. Apply through your county appraisal district and confirm details with them.
Frequently asked questions
No — a veteran with a 100% service-connected disability rating (or Individual Unemployability paid at 100%) is exempt from property tax on their residence homestead, regardless of the home's value.
You still qualify for a fixed-dollar exemption that scales with your rating — from $5,000 (10–29%) up to $12,000 (70%+) off your assessed value.
In Texas, an unremarried surviving spouse of a 100% disabled veteran can keep the full exemption as long as they continue to occupy the homestead.
