Ohio's 2.5% Owner-Occupancy Credit applies automatically to primary residences and reduces your effective tax rate, but the credit is calculated on your assessed value—file a Homestead Exemption claim with the Licking County Auditor to lock in tax benefits for seniors 65+ or disabled owners. Licking County conducts triennial reassessments (currently on a three-year cycle), so your property will be revalued every three years or upon sale—request your property record card from the Licking County Auditor after purchase to verify accuracy. Submit any exemption applications and appeals to the Licking County Auditor by the annual deadline (typically in March) or contact them to confirm filing deadlines for this reassessment year.
