Is your home getting every property tax break it qualifies for?
Each exemption has to be claimed separately with DeKalb County and with the city, and many homeowners miss one. Check your address in seconds.
Work with Decatur seniors?
Approved senior centers, faith groups and neighborhood associations get a private map of which homes are missing which exemption, so they can knock on the right doors.
What the check looks at
Both offices' records
Your 2026 city tax bill lists the city exemptions you have. DeKalb County's records list the county's. The check puts them side by side.
Gaps between them
If one office has a homestead on file and the other doesn't, or DeKalb's records already show an owner's age and the city's matching exemption is missing, the check tells you which form to file.
Nothing about you
The check only uses public property records. It doesn't ask your name, age or income, and it doesn't keep the addresses people type.
