Massachusetts Homestead Declaration for Natural Persons

Designate your primary residence as a homestead by filing this Massachusetts Declaration of Homestead for Homes Owned by Natural Persons.

• Filing this form may entitle you to homestead exemptions in addition to the $125,000 exemption which you are automatically granted by State law.
• If the home is owned by more than one person, each owner should complete a separate declaration.
• The declaration form should be completed and filed with the County Recorder's office in the county in which the property is situated.
