The bill expands eligibility for the property tax refund program to include renters who meet specific qualifications.

  • 39-13-109

    (H) The legislature finds that renters of property pay property taxes through the payment of rent to the property owner. The rented property would not otherwise qualify for a property tax refund under this paragraph if it is not the principal residence of the owner.
