flag Georgia launches tax-advantaged savings accounts for homeowners to cover disaster repair costs starting Jan. 1, 2026.

flag Georgia has enacted House Bill 511, creating catastrophe savings accounts for homeowners to save for disaster-related expenses like storm repairs with tax-deductible contributions, tax-free growth, and penalty-free withdrawals after a governor-declared emergency. flag The program, effective January 1, 2026, aims to help residents manage rising insurance deductibles and recovery costs in high-risk areas prone to hurricanes, floods, and tornadoes. flag Similar to health savings accounts, it allows homeowners to choose higher deductibles to lower premiums while building financial resilience. flag However, the program excludes renters and may be inaccessible to low-income households unable to afford regular contributions.
