Ways to pay less
- Seniors 65+ or disabled, low income: state property tax relief. Tennessee's tax relief program reimburses part or all of the property taxes paid by low-income homeowners 65 or older (by December 31, 2026) or disabled. The income limit is $38,470 (2025 income of the applicant, spouse, co-owners and resident remainder). It is a reimbursement, not an exemption. How: Apply after you receive your 2026 property tax bill, with the Loudon County Trustee ((865) 458-3103); inside city limits you may also contact the city's collecting official. The deadline is 35 days after the delinquency date, and taxes must be paid by then.
- Disabled veterans or surviving spouses: state property tax relief. Tennessee also gives property tax relief to disabled veteran homeowners and their surviving spouses, calculated on up to $175,000 of market value; other requirements apply. How: Contact your county trustee, the Loudon County Trustee ((865) 458-3103), to apply; veterans complete consent form F-16 (F-16S for a surviving spouse).
