Mortgage exemption bill expands real estate relief
Indiana lawmakers debate a proposed $10 000 mortgage exemption to curb double taxation. Senator Weldon Lambert of Columbus argues the measure would remove about 1.9 billion dollars in assessed value from taxation, while critics warn it could erode school funding and shift burdens. The proposal caps deductibles at 50 percent of property value and targets mortgages up to the limit, with broader debates expected next week as administration measures move forward.
