🏠 How Does the VATRE Affect Homeowners 65+? For homeowners **65 and older**, the VATRE would not increase your taxes if you've already applied for and received your **senior exemption**. You won't see any tax increase unless you make substantial improvements to your home. This exemption helps protect seniors from rising taxes while still supporting our schools! 💛🖤 #VegaISD #VATRE #SeniorExemption #SupportOurSchools #CommunityFirst
