Colorado Disabled Veteran Property Tax Exemption
Colorado Dept. of Local Affairs, Division of Property Taxation
About This Program
The Grant Map catalogs Colorado Disabled Veteran Property Tax Exemption in its Denver, CO research directory. The record carries audience tags for homeowners; those tags do not establish eligibility or current service coverage.
Honorably discharged veterans with a VA-rated 100% permanent service-connected disability (or individual unemployability status) qualify for a 50% property tax exemption on the first $300,000 of actual home value. Surviving spouses of qualifying veterans also qualify. There is no income test or length-of-ownership requirement for veterans (unlike the senior exemption).
At Denver's mill levy, 50% of $300,000 exempted value saves approximately $1,000-$2,500/year depending on total tax rate.
