Sales Tax on New Golf Cart
We’re shopping around for a golf cart outside the bubble and have been quoted three different tax rates:
* Dealer #1 (Leesburg): tax is 7% on first $5,000 and 6% on the remainder.
* Dealer #2 (Ocala): sales tax is based on the county in which they are located: 7.5%
* Dealer #3 (Clermont): sales tax is based on the county in which we reside, irrespective of the sales office we buy from. But then he said “the villages” (comprised of 3 counties) is 7%
It’s pretty odd/shady that they would all be saying different things, but I imagine one of them is right.
I’ll research myself but wanted to post/share as hopefully this will also help others.
