Signficant Property Tax Relief Achieved

Property tax relief was a defining element of the 2025 ND Legislative Session, and AARP was part of ensuring that changes were made to help older North Dakotans age in place.

The biggest win was House Bill 1176 which increases the primary residence credit from $500 to $1,600. Our efforts also contributed to bills that:

• Increased the renters’ credit under the Homestead Tax Credit from $400 to $600
• Continues the Homestead Property Tax Credit for individuals 65 and older or permanently disabled with income of $40,000 or less. These individuals remain eligible for up to 100% of taxable value of homestead or a maximum reduction of taxable value (about $2,000 of property tax)."
