I live in another state but I received a Homestead Rebate Application Packet for a vacation home that I own at the New Jersey shore. Am I eligible for a homestead rebate?
No. You are not eligible for a homestead rebate and you should not file an application. One of the eligibility requirements for the homestead rebate is that you must occupy the property as your principal residence on October 1, 2008. A principal residence is the home which you actually and continually occupy as your permanent residence. No rebate will be granted for your vacation home, your “second” home, or a property which you own and rent to someone else.
