ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens is providing an update on the city’s Anti-Displacement Tax Relief Fund program.

Launched in 2024 and later expanded in May of this year, the initiative pays an increase in taxes above the homeowner’s base taxes for a period of 20 years, as long as they maintain eligibility.

To be eligible, you must:

Be 60 years old or older

Have proof of home ownership

Have a household income of 60% AMI or below

Be enrolled in qualifying homestead exemption programs
