Homstead Exemption as Primary Resident Asset Protection

[Kevin Blakey]

I've been listening to Garrett Sutton's audiobook, "Loopholes of Real Estate". In it he discusses primary residence asset protection in the form of "Homestead Exemption" which varies by county. When I research this, the Homestead is a tax reduction for lower income or seniors, not an asset protection from creditors as he explains in his book. Does anyone have any insight on this?
