Re: homestead act

If you still have an interest in real property, you can declare a homestead. There is even a special category for folks 62 or over.

Forms are available at the Registry of Deeds where your deed is recorded.

Re: homestead act

AS long as you still have your name on the deed you can file a homestead. You can get the form from the Registry of deeds where your deed is filed and if you are over 62 there are special forms with additional protection for you.
