Thanks all for your replies. Now that I an back using IE 8 I can do some general research of a village and find a couple of similar valued homes with and without the exemption and find the difference.
The reason I asked this question was at some point I hope to have property in both Ohio and TV. At that point I will have to decide where to homestead and I and 90% sure it will be in Florida. I recently talked to the local auditors office here in Ohio and he tried to explain the math behind calculations and it was as if he was describing the math behind the Enron balance sheet. It bottom lined out to being about a $400.00 decrease in property taxes for the community where I currently live.
As far as the issues I was having with getting the tax information from the Sumter County web site that was due to a compatibility issue with IE 9 EC. There is a setting that needed to be changed but I went back to IE 8 before discovering that fix. I will wait until IE 9 is ready for final release.
