1 BREVARD COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER Dana Blickley, CFA
2 What does the Property Appraiser do? The Brevard County Property Appraiser (BCPA) is responsible for identifying, locating (listing), and valuing all property, both real and personal, within Brevard County for tax purposes. Determining an accurate, uniform, and equitable value is the only role of the office in the taxing process. Most importantly, the Property Appraiser does not create the value. Buyers and sellers transacting property in the marketplace set values. The Property Appraiser has the legal responsibility to study each and every transaction, the market participants, and the conditions of the transaction, e.g. arm s length transaction. The Property Appraiser analyzes trends in sales prices, construction costs, and rents to best estimate the value of all assessable property. The property appraiser also tracks ownership changes; maintains maps of parcel boundaries; keeps descriptions of buildings and property characteristics up to date; accepts and approves applications from property owners eligible for exemptions and other forms of property tax relief.
3 Exemptions The Property Appraiser administers and approves homestead exemptions and other exemptions authorized by Florida law. Additionally, classified use properties are administered and approved by the Property Appraiser involving such uses as "greenbelt" agricultural properties. Following is a breakdown of the number administered in each exemption category in 2013: Homestead Exemption 150,674 Widow/Widower Exemption 16,600 Disability Exemption 12,493 Agricultural Classification 1,524 Seniors Exemption 7,609 Churches & other Non Profit 1,654

15 Exemption Fraud The penalties for persons benefiting from unqualified exemptions are harsh. Florida Statutes specify that owners who do not qualify for a homestead exemption and other exemptions will have a lien placed against their property, and, if applicable, the properties can be back assessed for up to 10 years. The owners will also be required to pay a considerable penalty of 50% of the unpaid taxes for each year, and pay an interest rate of 15% per year. Residents will also lose their exemption along with the capped value and will be required to submit a new application.
16 Investigating fraud Homestead Exemption applications are accepted in good faith. Some fraud (multiple exemptions in state) is easier to identify Other fraud (rentals, out of state, deceased individuals receiving exemptions) is more difficult to identify Current investigation staff limited to responding to complaints, returned mail.
17 States most frequently involved in 1. New York-STAR dual exemptions: 2. Wisconsin- Lottery and Gaming Credit 3. Georgia- General Homestead Exemption 4. Ohio- 2.5% rollback 5. Pennsylvania- Local option county or city homestead and farmstead exemption
18 New York STAR
19 Pennsylvania Application
20 Examples of liens New York STAR lien for 10 years, with penalties and interest is almost $50, Wisconsin lottery and gaming credit lien for 6 years, with penalties and interest is almost $ for a credit of $635 in WI. Georgia homestead exemption lien for 3 years, with penalties and interest is almost $3,000 for a Georgia exemption of $2,000 from the assessed value of the residence. Ohio 2.5% rollback lien for 4 years, with penalties and interest is almost $4,500 for a 2.5% reduction on the Ohio tax bill.
21 Advice for applicants If you own property out of state please verify that you do not have any type of benefit in that state Many states call them exemptions; however, some call them credits and/or circuit breakers Some exemptions do not require residency in the state granting the exemption
22 BCPAO efforts to help eliminate dual exemptions/benefits Making the public more aware of these potential dual exemptions/benefits through public speaking Our customer service staff has been trained to ask if the applicant owns out of state property and if so, the applicant is required to submit something from that jurisdiction showing that they do not receive any benefits THE APP IS INCOMPLETE IF WE DO NOT RECEIVE THIS INFORMATION We have added additional language for out of state property owners who may receive benefits elsewhere to most forms
23 Statistics 2013 Homestead Investigation results 363 cases (on track to equal 2012) Liens: $253k filed, $266k paid (incl. interest + penalty) Liens outstanding (until transition): $1.043 million Total returned to tax roll: $4.964 million (on track for 30% increase over 2012) Accomplished with 4 FTE vs 6.5 FTE in budgeted adds one additional FTE
24 Important Dates to Remember January 1 Legal Assessment Date March 1 Deadline to apply for all exemptions (Seniors have until April 15 th for completion of original application) April Deadline to file a Tangible Personal Property Tax Return August Notices of proposed property taxes mailed September Deadline to file Value Adjustment Board Petitions
