When appraising the market value of properties, the property appraiser takes into account three commonly accepted methods: the cost method, the sales comparison approach, and the income approach. The characteristics of the property and the availability of market data determine which method to choose. Please note that the market value is not created by the property appraisers, but established by the property transactions between the buyers and sellers. On January 1st of every year, every parcel of property must be valued in accordance with its market value.

According to Florida Law, the property appraiser on behalf of the tax authorities prepares and mails the Notice of Proposed Tax forms, often referred to as Truth in Millage (TRIM) notices, in mid-August every year. This notice is generally regarded as an indicator of the tax bill you will receive in November, which may reflect potential changes in property taxes.
