1owned by the claimant or a member of the claimant's household. “ Real or personal
2property taxes" means those levied under ch. 70, less the tax credit, if any, afforded
3in respect of such property by s. 79.10. If a homestead is owned by 2 or more persons
4or entities as joint tenants or tenants in common or is owned as marital property or
5survivorship marital property and one or more such persons, entities or owners is not
6a member of the claimant's household, property taxes accrued is that part of property
7taxes accrued levied on such homestead, reduced by the tax credit under s. 79.10,
8that reflects the ownership percentage of the claimant and the claimant's household,
9except that if a homestead is owned by 2 or more natural persons or if 2 or more

11member of the claimant's household, and the claimant has a present interest, as that
12term is used in s. 700.03 (1), in the homestead and is required by the terms of a will

19property taxes are “levied" when the tax roll is delivered to the local treasurer for
20collection. If a homestead is sold or purchased during the calendar year of the levy,
21the property taxes accrued for the seller and the buyer are the amount of the tax levy
22prorated to each in proportion to the periods of time each both owned and occupied
23the homestead during the year to which the claim relates. The seller may use the
24closing agreement pertaining to the sale of the homestead, the property tax bill for
25the year before the year to which the claim relates or the property tax bill for the year

1to which the claim relates as the basis for computing property taxes accrued, but
2those taxes are allowable only for the portion of the year during which the seller
3owned and occupied the sold homestead. If a household owns and occupies 2 or more
4homesteads in the same calendar year, property taxes accrued is the sum of the
5prorated property taxes accrued attributable to the household for each of such
6homesteads. If the household owns and occupies the homestead for part of the
7calendar year and rents a homestead for part of the calendar year, it may include both
8the proration of taxes on the homestead owned and rent constituting property taxes
9accrued with respect to the months the homestead is rented in computing the amount
10of the claim under s. 71.54 (1). If a homestead is an integral part of a multipurpose
11or multidwelling building, property taxes accrued are the percentage of the property
12taxes accrued on that part of the multipurpose or multidwelling building occupied
13by the household as a principal residence plus that same percentage of the property
14taxes accrued on the land surrounding it, not exceeding one acre, that is reasonably
15necessary for use of the multipurpose or multidwelling building as a principal
16residence, except as the limitations of s. 71.54 (2) (b) apply. If the homestead is part
17of a farm, property taxes accrued are the property taxes accrued on up to 120 acres
18of the land contiguous to the claimant's principal residence and include the property
19taxes accrued on all improvements to real property located on such land, except as
