Maintenance Alert: Several applications in the Property Appraiser's Online Tools may be unavailable due to required maintenance starting at 7 p.m. on Friday, January 27. All applications should be available on Monday, January 30.

Buyer
Beware

When buying real estate property, do not assume property taxes will remain the same. A change in ownership may reset the assessed value of the property to full market value, which could result in higher property taxes. Please use our Tax Estimator to approximate your new property taxes.

The Property Appraiser does not send tax bills and does not set or collect taxes. Please visit the Tax Collector's website directly for additional information.

The Homestead Exemption saves property owners thousands of dollars each year. Do not jeopardize your Homestead by renting your property.

Before buying real estate property, be aware that non-ad valorem assessments may have a significant impact on your property tax bill.

Address Search

Addresses consist of basic components house number, directional, street name, street type.  Since properties are located in Miami-Dade County, Florida there is no need to include the city, state, or zip code when searching.  There are several ways to search for an address:

  • Use the basic address search, when you know the full address. 
    For example: 111 NW 1 St or 5680 SW 87 Ave
  • Walk-the-Street, don’t know the exact house number or address, you have two options:
    • Enter the address without the house number and you get all the address on the street.  For example SW 107 Ave and SW 56 St
    • Or, if the street is a name, type the name. For example: Alhambra or Alhambra Cir or Ponce De Leon or Alton
  • Try searching by intersection, for example: Bird Rd and 87 Ave.
  • Locate a nearby address/property and then navigate with the map to the desired property.
  • Want to see all the units in a condo, search by the address without a unit number

Owner Name Search

  • Basic name search is accomplished with First Name followed by Last Name (for example John Smith or Jose Rodriguez).
  • The Owner Name Search is not limited to alphabetic characters.
  • Some owner names include numbers and special characters these can be entered as well.
  • If the name was not found and the first name or last name is somewhat unique, try searching by one of those names only.  For example John McDonalds results in a data not found condition, but search for McDonalds will reveal multiple possible matches.
  • Names that include “Mc” like McDonalds or “Mac” like MacKenzie are concatenated.
  • Hyphenated names can be searched with and without the hyphen.
