4% if paid in November
3% if paid in December
2% if paid in January

Gross tax if paid in March, no discount applies
Real Estate Taxes become delinquent on April 1 of the following year in which they were assessed. As of April 1, a three percent (3%) penalty is added to the gross tax amount due. Discounts do not apply to delinquent payments. Delinquent taxes must be paid by cashier's check or money order. Personal checks will not be accepted.
Pursuant to Florida Statute 197.122, all property owners are held to know that taxes are due and payable annually. They are charged with the duty of ascertaining the amount of current and delinquent taxes due
If a taxpayer does not receive a tax notice in November, it is the taxpayer's responsibility to contact the tax collector's office to request a duplicate bill.
