• Homeowners insurance is on top — in Florida it varies widely with roof age and wind/flood zone (see the Reality Check below). Budget it before you offer.
• In CDD communities (Nocatee, SilverLeaf, eTown…), bond assessments are collected on the property-tax bill — the tax estimate above reflects county averages, so confirm this home’s exact CDD with us.
• Taxes are estimated at YOUR purchase price — Florida assessments reset on sale, so the seller’s current bill is usually lower than yours will be.

Florida’s Save Our Homes cap limits how fast the current owner’s assessment can rise — and it resets when a home sells, so a buyer’s tax bill is typically based on the purchase price, not the seller’s bill above. Estimate uses the median effective rate across 792 current Clay listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.

Storms & insurance

Florida Reality Check

The storm-and-insurance facts every Florida buyer should know up front.

Zone X — minimal flood hazard

Flood insurance is typically not required by lenders (always optional).

Flood damage is not covered by standard homeowners insurance — it’s always a separate policy.

Hurricane evacuation zone D

Zone D evacuates after zones A, B, C in an approaching storm.

Roof: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 1994)

Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.

Sewer (public record) · Public water · Clay County Utilities

County records show this parcel on central sewer — no septic system to inspect or maintain.

Source: Florida DOH Water Management Inventory (public record).

Solar potential: ~1,367 usable sun-hours per year

Moderate solar exposure — shade or roof orientation limits panel output here.
