Certification of the 2023 Preliminary Values

On June 23, my Office released the July 1st Preliminary Certification of Taxable Values to Martin County Taxing Authorities as well as submitted our preliminary tax roll to the Florida Department of Revenue for approval. This certification kicks off the annual budgeting timeline for local government agencies that rely on ad valorem tax revenue. Martin County has experienced a second (2nd) year of incredible growth in regard to market values and new construction. To learn more, check out this educational video, featuring Property Appraiser Jenny Fields and Chief Deputy Karl Andersson!
Denial Notices for Exemptions and Agricultural Classifications

Per Florida Law, the Property Appraiser is required to mail denial notices by July 1st. These notices were mailed to all non-approved exemption or agricultural classification applications. If you received one of these notices and have questions, please call our office at 772-288-5608.
What's Coming Up in July
Post-It Note Initiative for Educating New Home Buyers

We are excited to announce the launch of a new initiative involving Post-It notes! In an effort to educate new homeowners about filing for homestead and planning ahead by estimating their taxes, we have created an easy-to-use post-it note that title companies can stick right to the outside of their closing documents or realtors can give to their potential buyers! If you are interested in using these post-it notes to better serve your clients, please contact our Community Outreach team
and we will be happy to get them to you!
