What to Know Before You Buy

Florida Facts for Out-of-State Buyers

🏛️ No State Income Tax

One of the top financial reasons buyers relocate. Significant savings vs. states like CA, NY, IL, and NJ.

🏡 Homestead Exemption

Up to $50,000 off assessed value + a 3% annual assessment increase cap. File by March 1 after purchase.

🌊 Flood Zones

Flood zone designation dramatically affects insurance costs. We check every property's FEMA status before you make an offer.

🏘️ HOA & CDD Fees

Many Florida communities have both. These can add $300-$1,000+/month. We review all fees before any offer.

🛡️ Property Insurance

Florida insurance has risen significantly, especially coastal. Get quotes before making an offer — we can help.

🌞 Year-Round Appeal

No state income tax, warm weather, no snow — Florida's lifestyle advantages are unmatched anywhere in the US.
