What he did was unethical and unprofessional as you said, and also not legal. I would report him to the Florida Dept. of Business and Professional Regulation and let his broker of record know what he did. Agents who act improperly need to be reported.

I beg to differ.
The assessed value of a property is directly related to the sales price. You are correct that the other things you mentioned are definitely based upon what the buyer has paid.

So, if I sell my 300K home to my daughter for one dollar, her property tax will be based on the sale price of one dollar?

I believe that is considerd an "arm's length transaction" and the taxing authority will assess it at market value anyway.

As they do all resales. They do not go by sales price.

At any rate, you aren't mentioning a "real" situation, although that kind of thing has probably been done (I've never seen it happen). The tax assessor's office would be looking at that as a new owner and tax it according to what the market is at that time. The taxes most certainly won't stay the same and they definitely won't be lower. I'm sure you also realize the assessor's office would look at that kind of transaction with skepticism and would know exactly what you were trying to do. When sellers or buyers attempt to do what they think is clever, they are only raising a red flag and are drawing attention to the deal they really don't want.

Maybe this is just more of a "heads up" thread for potential buyers in TV to take what is said by real estate agents with a grain of salt. I appreciate the answers I have been given. That is why TOTV can be a great source of information for us wannabees/gonnabees.
