Notice of Proposed Property Tax

Written by Alberto M. Aguiar, CPA | Aug 28, 2024 6:56:21 PM

As a property owner in Florida, it is crucial to be aware of the TRIM Notice (proposed property tax assessment) that will soon be arriving in your mailbox. This notice provides important information about potential changes to your property taxes based on factors like property values and local tax rates. It is essential to carefully review the details included in the notice and understand how they may impact your financial obligations. If you find discrepancies or disagree with the information provided, you have 25 days from the mailing of the TRIM Notice to file a petition. Taking proactive steps to address any concerns can help you effectively manage your finances and avoid any unexpected surprises down the road. By staying informed and prepared, you can navigate potential adjustments to your property tax bill with confidence.

There are many service providers that will file an appeal on your behalf for a nominal fee and only charge you additional fees if they succeed in lowering the assessment.

We encourage you to stay proactive this time of year to ensure that you lower your tax burden as much as possible.
