Assessment cap
The annual cap on assessed value growth for rentals, second homes and commercial property drops from 10% to 5% — except for school district levies, which stay at 10%.
Every number traces back to a public record: the state tax roll for values, and each county's adopted millage schedule for rates. Nothing is guessed except the growth assumptions you choose.
We find the parcel
Your address is matched against the county property appraiser's 2026 roll to pull the assessed and taxable values, the property's use code and, where published, its homestead status.
We apply the new law
The projection applies the increased exemption to every non-school levy, keeps school levies on the old $25,000 exemption, and grows assessed value under the Save Our Homes cap.
We add your districts
Your county, city or unincorporated area, water management district and — in Manatee — fire district are billed at their 2026 adopted millage rates.
2026 adopted rates, in mills per $1,000 of taxable value. City, fire and special district levies are added to these when they apply.
