PROPERTY TAX RELIEF
June 19th, 2007 11:40 AM
The Florida Legislature passed a resolution during the special session that will seek voter approval for a "Super" homestead exemption to lower property taxes.  Also introduced was a special amendment giving homeowners the choice to retain their existing "Save Our Homes" benefit or select the "Super Exemption" (if passed by voters) .  Your voices were heard and the legislature has given you choices and the opportunity to vote on this important issue.  There will be much in the news over these next months, both for and against the "Super Exemption".  The media is filled with updates, tax calculators, and opinions. There are pages and pages of explanations on the internet.   If you are currently under the "Save Our Homes" benefit,  you could take advantage of the "Super Exemption" when and if you choose. Once you sell and move on, "Save Our Homes" will not be available for your next primary home, HOWEVER, you would have the benefit of the "Super Exemption" on your next primary home.  Let me know what your thoughts are on this important opportunity the voters have been given.
