Georgia HOME Act would end homeowner property taxes by 2032 — here’s what Georgia lawmakers are pitching

Georgia House Speaker Jon Burns rolled out a plan to eliminate property taxes on owner-occupied homes by 2032, contingent on voter approval of a constitutional amendment. The proposal calls for gradually increasing the state's homestead exemption—currently a tax break for primary residences—over the next decade as the tax phaseout proceeds. Property tax relief is now front and center at the Georgia Capitol as lawmakers debate different plans to ease homeowner bills. House leaders want to scrap homestead property taxes altogether, while the Senate is backing a statewide limit on how fast a home's taxable value can increase.

    July 5, 2026, 3:23 PM EDT. Meta Platforms and Tesla wrapped up the week with matching $1.48 trillion valuations.
