About This Program

NM Low-Income Property Tax Valuation Freeze is available to homeowners in Albuquerque, NM.

New Mexico allows qualifying low-income and elderly homeowners to freeze their property's taxable value, preventing increases as property values rise. Eligibility criteria including income limits vary by county and are set annually. Homeowners should contact the Bernalillo County Assessor's Office to confirm 2026 income thresholds and application requirements.

Savings vary depending on local real estate appreciation; freezing valuation prevents future tax increases rather than providing an immediate reduction.
