What can change your bill?

The ACS effective rate is a ratio of medians, not a statutory rate. Local assessed values, levies, classification, caps and exemptions determine the actual bill.

Exemptions & assessment

Basic homestead exemption only. The second, indexed non-school exemption is not included in this simple scenario.

Payment dates & appeals

Ordinary property taxes are due November 1, or when the certified roll is available afterward. Delinquency is normally April 1 of the following year, with a later date for some late notices.

A property-value petition to the value adjustment board is generally due within 25 days of the Notice of Proposed Property Taxes. Follow the notice and current county filing instructions.

Check Florida’s official property-tax guidance

Use an assessed value, exemption, and local millage

This separate scenario needs your assessor’s inputs. An exemption applies only to eligible levies; do not apply it to the county’s historical effective rate.

1 mill = $1 per $1,000 of taxable assessed value.

Good questions. Clear answers.

How much is property tax on a $400,000 home in Florida?

The historical effective-rate estimate is $3,042 per year, or $253 a month. It multiplies $400,000 by 0.76%.

Is the effective rate the rate on my tax bill?

No. It is median real-estate taxes paid divided by median home value in the ACS 2020-2024 survey. Your taxing districts, assessed value, classification and exemptions determine your bill.

Can I subtract a homestead exemption from this estimate?

Use the separate statutory scenario with a qualifying levy. Subtracting an exemption from an ACS effective-rate estimate can double-count relief already reflected in taxes paid.

Does a higher purchase price change my assessment?

Assessment rules and reassessment dates vary by state and locality. Contact the linked official property-tax office before relying on a historical county ratio.

How do I appeal a property-tax assessment?

Read the deadline and procedure on your assessment notice, then use the official state guidance above to locate your assessor or review board. County survey data does not establish your appeal deadline.
