City offers tax relief checks to low-income homeowners; $58,600 income cap applies
Summary
Greensboro’s fourth-year low-income homeowner assistance program lets homeowners whose city property tax rose since 2021 apply for a check for the difference; applicants must live inside city limits with combined household income $58,600 or less and may apply for both city and Guilford County programs.
On FYI Weekly, Rosemary Plyben said Greensboro residents whose City of Greensboro property tax was higher in 2025 than in 2021 "may qualify to receive a check for the difference." The program is in its fourth year and offers financial assistance on a first-come, first-served basis until funds are exhausted.
Plyben outlined application steps: create an online account, select the low-income homeowner assistance program, and follow prompts; applicants can also submit a hard copy as described on the city’s application web page. She said eligible homeowners must reside within Greensboro city limits and have combined household income of $58,600 or less, and that applicants who previously received assistance must submit a new application to participate again.
