As far as the property tax goes, it depends on the county you live in.
Each county has it's own millage rate.
My home is located in Sumter county. We just closed on the 27 th. We are not homesteading either.
It is my understanding that when the taxes comes up for renewal, you take the millage rate and multiply that by the units per thousand.
Example. Lets say you paid $200,000 for your home.
The millage rate for sumter county is 12.96.
Multiply 200 ( units per thousand ) by 12.96 ( $2586.00 ) and that would be your property tax.
You will also need to add in the fire tax, plus any cdd fees.

Hope this helps
