** If you are 65 years of age or older or are disabled and the property is your residence homestead, you may contact the appraisal district regarding any entitlement you may have to a deferral/postponement in the payment of taxes.
A deferred account will accrue interest at the rate of 8% annually.
Some jurisdictions offer tax "freezes" on properties which qualify for the over-65 or disability exemptions. These jurisdictions are, The City of Boerne, Boerne ISD, Comfort ISD, and Kendall County. Taxes are limited to the amount paid on the homestead in the qualifying year plus the value of any additions made to the property after that date.
