If you’re considering transferring a property to an LLC, this is a great read from the Pinellas County Property Appraiser.

Thinking of transferring your homesteaded property into a LLC? While a LLC may provide some liability protection it won’t protect your property’s assessment cap from resetting to Just/Market Value. Transferring your property to or from an LLC is considered a change of ownership for property tax purposes under state law, causing a removal of any existing assessment cap on the property and a higher property tax bill the following tax year.

If you’ve already done so this year, you can quitclaim the property back before year end to prevent this from happening in the new year. As always, contact our office at (727) 464-3207 with any questions.

🚨 BIG NEWS FOR FLORIDA HOMEOWNERS! 🚨

The Florida Legislature has formally approved a proposal that could eliminate property taxes for many primary homeowners across the state, sending the measure to Florida voters for approval on the November ballot.

If approved, this could be one of the most significant changes to Florida homeownership in decades. For many families, property taxes are a major part of their monthly housing costs. Reducing or eliminating that expense could dramatically improve affordability and increase purchasing power for homebuyers.

From a real estate perspective, I would fully expect to see increased buyer activity if this measure passes. Lower monthly ownership costs could make homeownership attainable for more Floridians and create additional demand throughout the market.

While there are still many details to be worked out and voters will have the final say, it's definitely something homeowners, buyers, and investors should be watching closely over the coming months.

As always, if you're thinking about buying, selling, investing, or need professional property management anywhere in the Tampa Bay area, I'd be happy to help.

What are your thoughts on eliminating property taxes for primary residences? Let me know in the comments!
