Senior relief
Roane County's Trustee administers Tennessee Property Tax Relief for qualifying elderly, disabled, disabled-veteran, and surviving-spouse applicants. Roane adopted the local-option senior Property Tax Freeze in 2007; the official 2026 county income limit is $43,460. Apply annually through the Trustee; the freeze generally covers the principal residence and up to 5 acres.
Valuation limits
No general Tennessee individual assessed-value cap was verified. Tennessee uses periodic reappraisal and certified-tax-rate/revenue-neutral rules; Greenbelt present-use valuation and any qualifying local senior Property Tax Freeze are separate protections.
For a valuation appeal, use the appeal date in the tax and filing section above. Keep your notice, supporting evidence, and proof of submission.
