• 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.

Taxes & assessment

2025 property taxes (current owner): $4,953/yr

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$7,800/yr

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 3,305 current Duval 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.

Flood zone not yet determined

Check the exact parcel at msc.fema.gov or ask Krista to pull it.

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

Evacuation zone not yet determined

Check floridadisaster.org/knowyourzone.

Roof: Shingle — 2019 per the listing

A recent roof is the single biggest lever on Florida homeowners-insurance pricing.

Solar potential: ~1,575 usable sun-hours per year

A strong solar roof by Florida standards — worth pricing panels if energy bills matter to you.

Krista can connect you with local insurance quotes before you make an offer.
