[Nfbf-l] any special laws for blind home buyers?

[Holly]

Marion,
The paper work is easy to fill out. All I needed was a certificate of
blindness form from DBS. Then if I made over $25,000 a year they wanted to
see prove of that because if I didn't then I would qualify for full
disability exemption not just blind exemption. The full disability means no
property taxes. I thought I was worth looking into the requirements and
filling the paperwork.

I don't know how much money you make but I will take the $12 off a year.
That is two rainy day cab rides for Jacy and I a year.
