Age-65/disabled homestead owners may apply with the county assessor to freeze taxable assessed value at the next assessment after turning 65 or becoming disabled. New construction or substantial improvements can increase value, and tax bills can still change with millage. Beginning with 2026 tax bills, the Arkansas homestead tax credit is up to $600.
Valuation limits
Arkansas Amendment 79 generally limits taxable assessed-value increases to 5% per year for homesteads and 10% per year for other real property until full assessed value; exceptions include newly discovered property, new construction, and substantial improvements.
For a valuation appeal, use the appeal date in the tax and filing section above. Keep your notice, supporting evidence, and proof of submission.
