Default Real Estate Tax Bill and Home Insurance
Got our Real Estate Tax and Home Insurance Bill this week. Unpleasant surprise, both increased by more than expected.

Next year, expect them to double, and then you will be pleasantly surprised.

This is our first tax bill and it's just what we were told it would be when we purchased our home in Fenney, half of what we were paying up north and that includes the bond and maintenance. Quite happy with it.

Ours is 1/3 of what we were paying in NJ 6 years ago!

Our TAX BILL was just slightly higher - Maintenance Cost in the Non-Ad Valorem Section went up 12%. Taxes went down $4 and change.

Do you have any factual basis for that comment or is it just a joke?

Thanks,

Perhaps mistakes were made. Check them out!

Appeal if necessary.

This year my Florida property taxes are $3376. My property taxes actually dropped by by $63 this year compared to last year.

The last year I lived in NY State (2012) my income and property taxes totaled $17,000. I should have moved to Florida much earlier!!!
