Default Sumter Tax Increase

After reading the threads on Sumter Tax Increase, I looked at mine and determined an Ad Valorem increase of $ 768.80 on a current valuation of $311,750 (Designer Home).

An increase of 25.94%.

I called Sumter and determined the following:

All similar house types (Designer, CV, Premier, etc) in an area are assessed the same (nominal) increase in Market Value, BUT:

The increase in Assessed Value is capped at;

3% for Florida Residents
10% for non-Residents

And for non-Residents, the School Tax assessment is at full Market Value.

Hope that helps.
