Sample Property Tax Report for a Hillsborough County, FL property


Property Tax

In Hillsborough County the process of appraising property for tax purposes is governed by Florida law.

Market Value

Florida property is usually taxed based upon its current market value, sometimes called appraised or just value. This is the price it would sell for when both buyer and seller seek the best price and neither is under pressure to buy or sell. Market values in Florida are evaluated as of January 1, based upon sales of comparable properties in the previous year.

Land value $110,682
Building value + $73,247
Extra features value + $4,686
Market value = $188,615

Assessed Value

Assessed value is the value of property after any assessment reductions, limitations, or caps have been applied. The annual increase of assessed values in Florida is limited to: 1) 3% greater than the prior year, or 2) the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index, whichever is lower. For 2011, the rate of increase is 1.5%.

Assessed value = $188,615

Exemptions and Taxable Value

Taxable values are assessed values minus any exemptions that apply. Any current exemptions officially recorded for this property are listed here (some may not apply to school district taxes).

Assessed value $188,615
Taxable value = $188,615

Property Tax

Property tax is calculated by multiplying the property's value by all the tax rates applicable to it. Current tax is based on taxable value and is an estimate of what the present owner pays; base tax is based on market value and is what an owner not benefiting from exemptions or caps such as the Save Our Homes amendment might pay. Actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to non-ad valorem taxes which may be added to the tax bill. These taxes finance, for example, waste disposal, stormwater and emergency services.

Tax Description Taxable Value Tax Rate Tax Amount

Current tax $188,615 x 21.5862‰ = $4,071.48

Base tax $188,615 x 21.5862‰ = $4,071.48
