dear escapequeen,

Sorry you're disappointed in us but I think I can see the problem here. Your question seems simple but it's very complicated. The short answer is - Yea, of course there's a difference in taxes from county to county, but it's very difficult to quantify or compare differences. No one can give you specifics, you must do the legwork yourself. Find three "identical" properties if you can, in Marion, Sumter and Lake counties, then go to that county's website to determine the assessed valuation of those properties. Be aware that if you do this perfectly, it's still a snapshot which can change significantly in the next tax year.
There are actually two much more important "tax" questions. First, what is the bond requirement for my TV home. The new Sumter homes have large bonds (10-20K), while many resales have a completely paid up bond. Second, find out what's going on in the Village you are interested in. The three oldest villages have become "independent" of the Developer on their recent 15th birthdays, meaning they are now more responsible for infrastructure costs. They are making deals with county governments but their taxes are now different than what is paid in other villages.

I've taken some time to answer but may not have helped you at all. If I didn't, then I'm just viewer#199. I suggest that if you don't get answers in the future try to reframe your questions. Commenting the way you did above can REALLY get you ignored. And, for sure, this IS America's Friendliest Hometown.

My understanding - could be wrong:

Yes - each of the three counties that TV has homes in have a different rate. Sumter county is the lowest; however that county has the bond in addition to the cost of the homes and is the only county in TV that has new homes. Within the individual county the rates are uniform and applied to the market value of the individual homes which is adjusted annually as is the rate.
