Parkland Florida Homestead Filing :Real Estate

Heron Bay Parkland fl  filed for homestead  and possibly portability as well (if you owned another property in the last 2 year  in Florida) you still have time to do it until March  31 2015.. It is very easy process today you can do it all on line and not only do you save money on your real estate taxes but  you will also cap the  value of the home, and it will not be able to go up any more  3% any one year,  which is very important as values start going  up. Florida Pursuant to the 1992 “Save Our Homes” (SOH) Amendment to the Florida Constitution, the assessed value of your Homestead property can increase by no more than 3%  above last year’s assessed value (or the consumer price index, whichever is less). The Florida Department of Revenue certifies the annual percentage amount for each year.  http://www.bcpa.net/soh.asp The only way your assessment can increase more than this is if there is a change in ownership, or you made physical improvements (build an addition, converted a  garage into a new room, etc.) to your property that was not included in last year’s assessment.

Homestead Exemption  in Coral Springs Florida and Parkland Florida does not transfer from property to property. If you had this exemption last year on another property and moved, you must file a new application for your new residence. Notify the Property Appraiser to cancel the exemptions on your former home. The sellers’ exemptions will not carry over beyond the year of the sale: you MUST apply for your own exemptions. Florida’s Portability law allows property owners to transfer their “Save Our Homes” benefit earned on a previous Homestead property to their new Homestead property.  If you are applying for a new Homestead Exemption AND you held a Homestead exemption on a previous property within the last 2 tax-years anywhere in Florida, you should also submit a Portability application with your Homestead application. Note:  a Portability application transfers any tax savings you have earned, but it does NOT transfer your Homestead exemption from one property to another.  You MUST first apply for a Homestead exemption Plaza Del Lagoin order to be eligible for Portability. Click here to begin the online Homestead application process and you will automatically be prompted to print and complete a Portability application if your application information indicates you held an eligible Homestead exemption on a previous Florida property. YOU CAN FILE NOW FOR A 2014 HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION!
