Property Appraiser - Carlos Lopez-Cantera

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.

Paying Your Property Taxes

Once the taxes become available in November, you can visit the Real Property Tax Information online. 

You can pay online, in person, by mail, or in installments.

If you can't afford to pay your taxes, please note that there is no provision in Florida law for your value to be reduced because of personal hardship or inability to pay.

While we empathize with the many difficult personal situations people experience, the law does not allow us to lower values because of these circumstances.

The Tax Collector may have a program to assist you with deferring taxes and paying in quarterly installments.

If you believe your taxes are too high, you should contact the taxing authority. The Property Appraiser does not determine the amount of taxes you pay. However, the taxing authorities use the Property Appraiser's assessment value to determine the taxes they levy. Therefore, the Property Appraisal Department staff can discuss the assessment value of your property.

Real estate values are established by the interaction of buyers and sellers acting independently in the marketplace. If sale prices in your area increase, the market value of your property may increase.


Inability to Pay

There is no provision in Florida Law for your value to be reduced because of personal hardship or inability to pay.  While we empathize with the many difficult personal situations people experience, the law does not allow us to lower values because of those circumstances.

The Tax Collector may have a program to assist you. You may wish to contact the Collector to inquire about deferring taxes or paying in quarterly installments.
