Florida property taxes are relatively unique because:

• They are levied annually.

• Taxes on each parcel of real property have to be paid in full and at one time (except for the installment method and homestead tax deferrals)

• Substantial discounts are extended for early payment.

Ad valorem taxes or real property taxes are based on the value of such property, and are paid in arrears. The tax year runs from January 1st to December 31st. The office of the Property Appraiser establishes the value of the property, and the Board of County Commissioners, School Board, City Commissioners and other levying bodies set the millage rates. One mill equals $1.00 per $1,000.00 of property value.
