Property Tax Calculation

The Florida Constitution and the Florida Statutes provide the legal framework for property taxation within the state. In Florida, property taxes are established and administered at the local level by counties, municipalities, school districts, and special taxing authorities. These taxes are based on the assessed value of real property and serve as a primary source of funding for essential public services, including education, law enforcement, fire protection, infrastructure, and other community programs.

Market Value

Jefferson County determines the market value of real property, referred to as just value, for tax purposes based on the price a willing and informed buyer and seller would agree upon, with neither under compulsion to act. Under Florida law, the Jefferson County Property Appraiser determines this value as of January 1 of each tax year. Values are established using standard appraisal practices, including the analysis of comparable sales, property characteristics, location, and prevailing market conditions.

Assessed Value

The Property Appraiser establishes the assessed value of each property annually. Although derived from market value, the assessed value may be subject to statutory limitations, including the Save Our Homes Amendment for qualifying homesteaded properties, which limits annual increases in assessed value to 3% or the change in the Consumer Price Index, whichever is lower.

Property Tax

The base tax is calculated by multiplying the property's assessed value by the applicable millage rates and represents an estimate of the amount a property owner would pay without any exemptions.

Notice that we used 2024 tax rates since 2025 values are not available yet.

Tax description	Assessed value		Millage rate		Tax amount
Base tax	$182,335	x	13.1804	=	$2,403

The current tax is calculated by multiplying the taxable value by the applicable millage rates. The resulting amount reflects the tax payable by the property owner after the application of any exemptions.

Tax description	Assessed value		Exemption		Taxable value		Millage rate		Tax amount
School-Lre	$182,335	-	$25,000	=	$157,335	x	3.0840	=	$485.22
School-Disc	$182,335	-	$25,000	=	$157,335	x	2.2480	=	$353.69
NW FL Water	$182,335	-	$50,722	=	$131,613	x	0.0218	=	$2.87
Jefferson CO.	$182,335	-	$50,722	=	$131,613	x	7.8266	=	$1,030.08
Current tax								=	$1,872

Actual taxes may differ from the amounts displayed due to applicable exemptions, assessment limitations, or other adjustments. In addition, tax bills may include non-ad valorem assessments, such as charges for solid waste, stormwater management, fire rescue, or other local services, which are not based on property value. For more information please visit Jefferson County's Appraiser and Tax Collector or look up this property's current valuation and tax situation.
