Default Homestead Exemption?

A couple of questions regarding Homestead Exemption. What is the approximate reduction in your property tax do you get with the exemption vs. without. Just an approx figure because I know it will be different because of the three county and the appraised value of the home.

Also in looking at the Sumter County web site I notice that on some listings it shows two $25K homestead exemptions and I know the person is single. Are there more than one $25K exemption and if so what is the second for?

Sumter County changed their web site and they have made it a lot more difficult if researching property tax records. I tried doing a number of searches and of the 10 or so I tried only one came back with any tax history. Before the changes it was a one click effort and now it is a lot of cutting and pasting only to come up with nothing. That's the gov for you.
