What is property tax ‘Portability’ in Florida?

Answer:  It’s the ability to transfer the dollar benefit of the homestead property assessment limitation known as the “Save Our Homes” benefit from a prior homestead to a subsequent homestead. The portable amount is the difference between market value and assessed value.

Example: 2007 Certified Market Value from prior homestead  ($250,000) minus 2007 Certified Assessed Value from prior homestead ($150,000) equals Portable Amount ($100,000).
