  • The Property Tax Break Nobody Knows About

    The Property Tax Break Nobody Knows About
    May 14 2026
    Connecticut homeowners are getting crushed by the 2025 property tax revaluations and there was a law on the books that could have helped. Melissa and housing expert Renée Dobos of Connecticut Housing Partners break down the Connecticut Homestead Exemption Act, a little-known statute that would allow towns to reduce owner-occupied home assessments by up to $50,000. So why does almost no one know about it? And why did Stratford — one of the only towns that tried to adopt it — have to drop the idea before it even got off the ground? Renee also shares what she and the Connecticut Housing Partners team took to Capitol Hill during their recent NeighborWorks trip, including a push for increased federal funding as Connecticut faces a shortage of over 300,000 housing units. Plus, Melissa makes the case for why transportation infrastructure — not just inventory — needs to be part of the affordable housing conversation in Connecticut.
