(7) "Property taxes accrued" means real or personal property taxes or
8monthly
parking municipal permit fees under s. 66.0435 (3) (c), exclusive of special
9assessments, delinquent interest and charges for service, levied on a homestead

11property taxes" means those levied under ch. 70, less the tax credit, if any, afforded
12in respect of such property by s. 79.10. If a homestead is owned by 2 or more persons
13or entities as joint tenants or tenants in common or is owned as marital property or
14survivorship marital property and one or more such persons, entities or owners is not
15a member of the claimant's household, property taxes accrued is that part of property
16taxes accrued levied on such homestead, reduced by the tax credit under s. 79.10,
17that reflects the ownership percentage of the claimant and the claimant's household,
18except that if a homestead is owned by 2 or more natural persons or if 2 or more
19natural persons have an interest in a homestead, one or more of whom is not a
20member of the claimant's household, and the claimant has a present interest, as that
21term is used in s. 700.03 (1), in the homestead and is required by the terms of a will

1no effect in computing property taxes accrued for a person whose homestead is not
2the same as the homestead of that person's spouse. For purposes of this subsection,
3property taxes are "levied" when the tax roll is delivered to the local treasurer for
4collection. If a homestead is sold or purchased during the calendar year of the levy,
5the property taxes accrued for the seller and the buyer are the amount of the tax levy
6prorated to each in proportion to the periods of time each both owned and occupied
7the homestead during the year to which the claim relates. The seller may use the
8closing agreement pertaining to the sale of the homestead, the property tax bill for
9the year before the year to which the claim relates or the property tax bill for the year
10to which the claim relates as the basis for computing property taxes accrued, but
11those taxes are allowable only for the portion of the year during which the seller
12owned and occupied the sold homestead. If a household owns and occupies 2 or more
13homesteads in the same calendar year, property taxes accrued is the sum of the
14prorated property taxes accrued attributable to the household for each of such
15homesteads. If the household owns and occupies the homestead for part of the
16calendar year and rents a homestead for part of the calendar year, it may include both
17the proration of taxes on the homestead owned and rent constituting property taxes
18accrued with respect to the months the homestead is rented in computing the amount
19of the claim under s. 71.54 (1). If a homestead is an integral part of a multipurpose
20or multidwelling building, property taxes accrued are the percentage of the property
21taxes accrued on that part of the multipurpose or multidwelling building occupied
22by the household as a principal residence plus that same percentage of the property
23taxes accrued on the land surrounding it, not exceeding one acre, that is reasonably
24necessary for use of the multipurpose or multidwelling building as a principal
25residence, except as the limitations of s. 71.54 (2) (b) apply. If the homestead is part
1of a farm, property taxes accrued are the property taxes accrued on up to 120 acres
2of the land contiguous to the claimant's principal residence and include the property
