Does anyone know if a landlord can claim homestead exemption on non-owner occupied rental property in GA?
I didn't think so, but the closing documents from the attorney on my last house contained a reminder note to file for homestead exemption prior to a certain date next year.

Homestead is only applied to "Primary Resident". When I moved and turned the previous house into rental, I had to remove the HS with the county in order apply one for the new place - Perhaps the closing note was a mass reminder, since most purchasers is home-owner.
