About This Program
The Grant Map catalogs Virginia Beach Disabled Veteran Property Tax Exemption in its Virginia Beach, VA research directory. The record carries audience tags for homeowners; those tags do not establish eligibility or current service coverage.
Virginia Beach provides full real estate tax exemption on the primary residence for veterans rated 100% service-connected, permanently and totally disabled by the VA. Gross income of the veteran and spouse must not exceed $29,500. Surviving spouses of veterans whose death occurred on or after January 1, 2011 may also qualify as long as they have not remarried. Apply through the Commissioner of the Revenue office.
Full exemption on typical Virginia Beach home saves $3,000-$5,000+ annually
