Can you claim the homestead exemption if you don't live in the house but your renting out ?

No. Your taxes will rise significantly.

No. Homestead means it is your primary residence. You claim it on the home you are living in.

I think you have to live in the house. But a lawyer would probably give you better advice than some random Internet people. Talk to a lawyer to be sure.

I've rented properties and homestead is for your primary residence. Once you don't live there, the next year taxes hike.
