Senior relief
South Dakota's 2026 Assessment Freeze for the Elderly and Disabled is available to a qualifying owner-occupied single-family homeowner age 65+ or disabled, resident of South Dakota for five years unless previously qualified, living in the home at least 200 days, and meeting income limits under $56,595 for a single-member household or $66,885 for a multiple-member household; the full-and-true-value limit is $514,500 and the annual application is due April 1. A separate state sales/property-tax refund program applies to qualifying seniors or disabled residents; the 2026 application for 2025 taxes was due July 1, 2026.
Valuation limits
No county-specific individual-parcel cap was verified. Under enacted 2025 South Dakota Senate Bill 216, for taxes payable in 2027–2031, total assessed value of county owner-occupied single-family dwellings may not increase more than 3% over the prior year, excluding statutory additions for new improvements, reclassifications, annexations, and minor boundary changes; this is a countywide aggregate cap, not an individual-parcel cap. Taxing-district revenue is generally limited to the lesser of 3% or the CPI/index factor plus growth, subject to statutory exceptions. Individual assessments remain at full and true/market value; the elderly/disabled assessment freeze is separate.
