In the most recent newsletter, Property Appraiser Marty Kiar clarifies that Florida law requires our office to assess all property based on the market data on January 1 of each year.  The Property Appraiser’s Office does not set your tax rates, collect property taxes, or determine how the tax revenue is allocated by local government.  The property tax bills are sent by the Broward County Tax Collector’s Office.  If you have questions regarding the payment of your tax bill, the Tax Collector’s Office can be reached at 954-357-4829 or you can visit their website at https://www.broward.org/RecordsTaxesTreasury.

The newsletter also discusses “Where Is My 2025 Homestead Exemption?”  This is particularity important to new home owners who do not automatically receive the homestead exemption.  If you acquired your home in 2024 and the previous owners of your new home lawfully received Homestead Exemption or any other exemption on January 1, 2024, you may have inherited their exemptions on your 2024 property tax bill.  Florida Statutes require these 2024 exemptions be removed and the property be reassessed at the full Just/Market Value for 2025.  Click here to read the full newsletter.
