Unfortunately the laws of supply and demand. A disproportionate percentage of Americans are flocking to Florida to escape badly run states. Once there are more viable states to move to this issue will improve.
Broward County School Board has a referendum in the next election to help themselves to a pay increase for teachers and school workers. If passed, it amounts to a property tax increase of 200 dollars per home per year.
We need to keep pushing and get louder about the homestead. Texas increased to $100k! People kept calling out the massive windfall of cash the state was getting because of new home sales, resales selling higher and then annual increases. Texas had to get it on the talk shows too and get them asking the politician in large forums to get them moving on it!
IT's not just homestead properties. Non homestead properties in Dade County have increased over 163% in the last 10 years. Dade County is the leading cause of inflation in Dade County. These yearly increases on non homestead properties are why rent prices are at all time highs.
@@PaulaPatioOfficial Business pass their tax increases on to you whenever possible. If you rent or know people that do, they pay more and more for rent because non-homestead properties are always subject to property tax increases.
Property tax should not even exist in the first place, and before anyone says those taxes are needed to pay for things we all use...FALSE. Look at your property tax bill. The majority of the bill goes to fund public schools. If you feel citizens must pay for the education for their neighbors kids then get the money another way! Tax something else, but not homes! How is that even ethical that people are forever renters? The Government has a continuous lien on homes and that isn't even right. No tax on food, water or medicine because they are deemed "necessity" so you don't think shelter is a necessity??? What would happen if everyone in the world just refused to pay property tax all at the same time?
Work all your life. Pay off your house. Save. Retire on a fixed income. Property taxes go up so you can’t afford to live in your own home. Only govt can steal your private property.
Auto insurance are sick stealing people money when they have perfect record and barely drive at all. In the last 4 years ago, $400 for 6 months and suddenly over $1k for 6 months with the same options. Soon, we can't afford to drive automobiles when us Floridian required by law to have auto insurance.
@mcheng102 Traffic is terrible in Florida. Also lower the speed limits.to what they were years ago! That is needed EVERYWHERE! Speed limits are WAY too high Everywhere! Suicidal! Especially with so many elderly drivers in Florida.
@@dorothymartin8557 I drive a 2023 Toyota Rav4 Hybrid. I'm a bit of slow driver due to the Hybrid to maintain in good condition and lower cost at the gas tank. Why in hell people drive fast when gas prices are sky high? I'm in the mid 40's. No need to rush yourself at the gas pump and spend more money. In exchange, you can enjoy saving money of Hybrid cost efficient vehicles.
@@dorothymartin8557Slower speeds make traffic worse, speed limits need to be RAISED. Too many elderly that already drive 15 below the limit everywhere and cause traffic. I’m sorry if you’re old and slow, stop driving. Give up your license.
We did, forced insurance companies to have to pay hurricane damages, so all the big ones left. It's now at the national level, have to force companies who does business here with auto and have home insurance in other states, make them HAVE to offer their services here also.
In my opinion: We need to have renters pay for public school & community taxes inline with the overly burdened homeowner who foots almost the entire bill.
Sales tax holidays do nothing to relieve the financial burden of living in Florida. If you want to provide real help to Floridians, reduce Property Taxes, Insurance premiums, food costs, Provide meaningful child tax credits, stop taxing retirement income.
Unfortunately the cost of living is because of Quid pro quo Joe closing the pipeline. When we have to import gas the cost of gas goes up. Gas goes up, transportation to get food, clothing and everything else to us goes up. It’s not that hard to figure out.
get your local property appraiser and your city government to do that... they control that... if you live in a democrat run area they love to collect more money from the people because they want us broke and disgusted...

Taxes are really about the same across all states, income tax or not. Only NYC and CA are above the average of 6-8%. Florida, Texas and Tennessee residents still pay on average 6-7% of their annual income in taxes.
THANK YOU GOVERNOR DESANTIS FOR ALL OF YOUR HARD WORK BUT WE NEED HELP WITH HOUSE AND AUTO INSURANCE AND PROPERTY TAXES, THEY NEED TO COME DOWN IN PRICE.
I could not find a source for federal funding, regarding Florida toll roads. I thought the funding for breaking ground and maintenance comes from a collective pot that drivers pay when they use the toll roads? Can you please provide me a source for federal funds that are used to build and maintain the Florida toll roads? I never thought of looking into this, but now I am intrigued.
Very few toll roads do not have a free alternative, you just get to enjoy traffic lights and a lot more time in your vehicle and fuel burn. Going to the Keys and dont like the tolls on the Reagan Tollway, you can go west out of Ft. Lauderdale and take the Alligator Highway through Homestead for free. A lot of toll roads are NOT DIRECTLY government funded, but they do get to do the Eminent Domain to get (CONFISCATE) the land so I agree should never have tolls. If it takes from the public IN ANY WAY, the public should own it and control it.
Cool. My family is already gone and the only thing left is my house, which I'm struggling to keep bc of insurance. But hey, no tax on smoke alarms will save me several cents.

My homeowner's insurance was six hundred dollars a year in two thousand fifteen. Now it's almost three thousand a year... And I don't live in an old house. I live in one.

Take care of people here? Are you serious? The average Floridian is struggling to make ends meet. You do know that Florida has the highest inflation in the country. Homeowners insurance alone is now 4x the national average. It's tripled in the last five years.

So I am going to buy my kid new clothes and a laptop for school; however, I am not sure where out next meal is going to come from, how I am going to pay auto/home insurance and stressing about property taxes. It is nonsensical and irrelevant to the people that need the help the MOST.
We pay property taxes.. we don't have Home insurance, a Gamble we take..one (guns,jail, or Weather)or the other! We STAYCATION in the backyard. What a pursuit of Happiness.
@@ManhNguyen-vd5qj40% of homes and even higher percentage of condo in FL are HOA communities. It’s virtually impossible in some areas to find a home in non HOA. More laws need to be made to protect homeowners from HOA. All the new communities in over 20 years where I live are all HOA. It’s safe to say in my city it’s closer to 90% of homes/condos have HOA. It’s quite insane.
Why are we picking and choosing who gets tax relief? Just reduce the sales tax, so we can all get whatever we want and take advantage. And yes, as everyone else said, focus on real estate tax and homeowners' insurance.
Massive tax cut for who? It's the old, raise "prices" for generations, then give people a $50 tax cut and expect them to cheer and thank you... just a game.
It’s likely because his house was purchased before yours when prices were cheaper. Florida’s homestead rule caps how much the state can raise taxes on you each year, and where it starts is based on purchase price. So if they bought in the 90s, taxes will be very affordable for them compared to anyone buying in the 2000s (and god help anyone buying now). The idea was to reward people who bought when it was cheap so they could stay there, and then tax the wealthy northerners who come flocking down in droves and buy the houses after everything is developed and home prices have gone up
Hey Governor how about a property tax relief for Floridians? It’s killing us here in Volusia County, at least cut it for seniors on fixed income earning $50k and less. That would be much appreciated, maybe then we can afford 2 meals a day, and keep our homes.
I moved from San Diego in 2021. I love how cheap the state of Florida is to live in. I simply am unclear about what Florida people bitch about when it comes to costs. Thanks Ron. I love Florida. Not Leaving 😎.
it's people working in supermarkets crying because they want to be own houses and be seen as "rich". Anyone crying about Florida has no clue about anything. They should try living in California and NY for a month.
Yeah! You come from San Diego! 😂😂 now move from Florida back to any place! 😤 the cost of things here does not compare with the income! That’s why people complain so much!
@@adrianaguerrero5517 I was born in Dade County. I crawled out the Naranja projects. I have no sympathy for the rest of you. “Pull yourself up by your bootstraps” 😂
Mr Governor maybe you can find way how to home homeless seniors. It would be nice if we have programs for them that are also on fixed income. Homelessness is really a big problem in our country
DeSantis, when are you going to remove school tax for seniors. Our property tax is outrageous. Start thinking about a tax relief for seniors as we never get a tax break.
When your social security benefits end. Social security the original Ponzi scheme where the first people receiving benefits never paid into the system and everyone forever is screwed over because of it.
Viola- you actually got a break years ago when you got a second homestead exemption. Prices in florida are going up because people are leaving blue states ( California, NY, illinois-etc) because of horrible Biden n Democratic policies. That and companies like Blackrock, vanguard, state street all out bidding people and thatis what is driving the house prices up. It’s not DeSantis fault.
And yet Ron wants to do away with social security, in a state full of retired people who survive off of it , screw the home owners insurance and car insurance companies that are ripping people off !
he wants to get rid of state social security? well he better be prepared to be sued by those who havent collected theirs but was taxed for it... same reason why the feds cant get rid of fed SS lol
Social security is empty, there was never a lock box. Congress took all the money and blew it. COLA is not keeping up with inflation. Retirement age keeps getting raised. Birth rate cratering. Illegal immigrants not even contributing due to getting paid cash. Get a grip people, you've been scammed. Oh sure you paid into it, but you pay taxes and get nothing for that too so quit whining.
That’s the biggest lie ever!! Fake news media keeps pushing the propaganda about SS and Medicare reduction or elimination. WHO is going to take care of people in their old age?? The government? Or just leave them homeless on the streets? Not going to happen.
This is not tax relief so much as it's a tax incentive for individuals and businesses to buy specified items and for businesses to provide services or hire.
Thank you for the tax package cut for your tax paying citizens of Florida. In reading many concerns, they need the Real Estate Property taxes permanently removed for those over 60 who only have one primary residence and on fixed social security/pension as only income. Also, for those 59 and below, reduce the assessments so people don't lose their homes as they cannot pay the ridiculous property tax hikes.
what good ones? they cant even teach basic math and lit lol been that way since the 90s when they introduced that stupid "leave no kid behind" crap lol they dont deserve the pay they currently get, not interested in paying them more to not do the job they were hired for haha
Nah get rid of public schools entirely. The US education system is terrible in general and has only gotten worse..and it's extremely expensive for the tax payer. A huge portion of property taxes are for public schools. By eliminating public schools we'd cut property taxes DRAMATICALLY.
Just as he raises insurance premiums again, he has to sign every single insurance premium increase. It goes across his desk for signature. And it’s public information how much insurance companies donated to his campaign. Millions !! Look it up.
The Only relief I and so many of us need is Home Insurance Premiums! I just received my renewal and it went up again by hundreds. This is getting out of hand now!
When Trump was prez, the middle class was wealthier. Hello. We're about to have a ton more fed taxes bc Trump's tax cuts are going to expire, and JB isn't renewing them.
All great things. I applaud you. However if you don't help us get affordable homeowners insurance, we must leave the state. Sell our homes that we love. Can't afford to keep our homes. My home owners insurance jumped to $12000 per yr. Last June. UP 250% from prior yr. Now citizens notified me they will no longer renew us in fl. Checked with another co. They want $18000 to renew me in June 2024. Ridiculous. I'm 75 yr old. Only get social security security. I don't even make that amount. We need help Now!
To everyone complaining about the property tax and insurance, commenting here will not help. You need to petition for that, and if you already have, keep doing it!!!
I want to move to Florida but stuck in California. California is the worst run state with the highest taxes and only going up while here I am... enviously watching DeSantis tirelessly working on improving quality of life and reducing taxes/fee in Florida.
How about protecting the Withlacoochee River from being polluted by Valdosta Georgia's waste runoff pollution when there are large rains? Toll relief does very little for North Central and West Florida. Gold and silver as recognized currency?
Help your longtime FLORIDA citizens that are being priced out of the state!!!! Home insurance and property taxes are killing us!!! 😢

So I am going to buy my kid new clothes and a laptop for school; however, I am not sure where out next meal is going to come from, how I am going to pay auto/home insurance and stressing about property taxes. It is nonsensical and irrelevant to the people that need the help the MOST.
We pay property taxes.. we don't have Home insurance, a Gamble we take..one (guns,jail, or Weather)or the other! We STAYCATION in the backyard. What a pursuit of Happiness.
We need help with home insurance and property taxes are killing is little by little.
My mortgage went up by 50% my HOA doubled. WTF Captain Ron????
Probably from your insurance escrow as part of your mortgage. And HOA who lives in a HOA area, just a bunch of leeches syphoning your cash.
You don't know why? lol
@@ManhNguyen-vd5qj My property taxes going up too, captain obvious.
@@ManhNguyen-vd5qj40% of homes and even higher percentage of condo in FL are HOA communities. It’s virtually impossible in some areas to find a home in non HOA. More laws need to be made to protect homeowners from HOA. All the new communities in over 20 years where I live are all HOA. It’s safe to say in my city it’s closer to 90% of homes/condos have HOA. It’s quite insane.
Why are we picking and choosing who gets tax relief? Just reduce the sales tax, so we can all get whatever we want and take advantage. And yes, as everyone else said, focus on real estate tax and homeowners' insurance.
Hey Newsome…why don’t you try this tactic for ONCE IN YOUR LIFE….your struggling population would appreciate it
Hahhahaha nope we have even more taxes on the docket to vote on .. i mean, to get told that its being implemented
Rising the min wage means more radiation
Massive tax cut for who?
It's the old, raise "prices" for generations, then give people a $50 tax cut and expect them to cheer and thank you... just a game.
You need to stop the insurance high prices! Is crazy! More than 200% increase 😢
Desantis is the Best Governor.
What about property tax relief/fairness. My property taxes are 3 1/2 times higher than my neighbors and his house is bigger with a pool.
It’s likely because his house was purchased before yours when prices were cheaper. Florida’s homestead rule caps how much the state can raise taxes on you each year, and where it starts is based on purchase price. So if they bought in the 90s, taxes will be very affordable for them compared to anyone buying in the 2000s (and god help anyone buying now).
The idea was to reward people who bought when it was cheap so they could stay there, and then tax the wealthy northerners who come flocking down in droves and buy the houses after everything is developed and home prices have gone up
Hey Governor how about a property tax relief for Floridians? It’s killing us here in Volusia County, at least cut it for seniors on fixed income earning $50k and less. That would be much appreciated, maybe then we can afford 2 meals a day, and keep our homes.
That's your county
He can't change that
You need to go after county officials,
County tax not state.
Vehicle insurance, home insurance and property taxes all need your attention. PLEASE
Property taxes keep going up. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻they go down!!!!
I moved from San Diego in 2021. I love how cheap the state of Florida is to live in. I simply am unclear about what Florida people bitch about when it comes to costs.
Thanks Ron. I love Florida. Not Leaving 😎.
it's people working in supermarkets crying because they want to be own houses and be seen as "rich".
Anyone crying about Florida has no clue about anything. They should try living in California and NY for a month.
Yeah! You come from San Diego! 😂😂 now move from Florida back to any place! 😤 the cost of things here does not compare with the income! That’s why people complain so much!
@@adrianaguerrero5517
I was born in Dade County. I crawled out the Naranja projects. I have no sympathy for the rest of you.
“Pull yourself up by your bootstraps” 😂
😂 You've been trained well.
Look at the number of people who have been leaving Florida in the last 2 years.
Well bye!
Yes good a Floridians have been leaving thanks to all that crap that has moved here.
Leaving?? 😂😂😂 Keep drinking the kool aide.
They always focus on the number of people moving in (700k) but not the people that are leaving (500k)
@@kimberlyemerson2754 200k x 5 years = 1 million.
Mr Governor maybe you can find way how to home homeless seniors. It would be nice if we have programs for them that are also on fixed income. Homelessness is really a big problem in our country
Move these projects up! Southwest Florida traffic is NOT sustainable.
DeSantis, when are you going to remove school tax for seniors. Our property tax is outrageous. Start thinking about a tax relief for seniors as we never get a tax break.
Not compared to California and NY
When your social security benefits end. Social security the original Ponzi scheme where the first people receiving benefits never paid into the system and everyone forever is screwed over because of it.
Why should you get a break just because you're old? I don't have children so why should I pay?
@@KingFergus so, why should you?
Viola- you actually got a break years ago when you got a second homestead exemption.
Prices in florida are going up because people are leaving blue states ( California, NY, illinois-etc) because of horrible Biden n Democratic policies.
That and companies like Blackrock, vanguard, state street all out bidding people and thatis what is driving the house prices up.
It’s not DeSantis fault.
Then why is Duval County shutting schools so they can have a bigger fancier football stadium instead of taking care of the children?
deegan should of fixed this
Gov DeSantis is the best governor in the country!
Thank you Governor! We in Florida have the BEST GOVERNOR! And he said there would be more to come! Thank you
And yet Ron wants to do away with social security, in a state full of retired people who survive off of it , screw the home owners insurance and car insurance companies that are ripping people off !
he wants to get rid of state social security? well he better be prepared to be sued by those who havent collected theirs but was taxed for it... same reason why the feds cant get rid of fed SS lol
Social security is empty, there was never a lock box. Congress took all the money and blew it. COLA is not keeping up with inflation. Retirement age keeps getting raised. Birth rate cratering. Illegal immigrants not even contributing due to getting paid cash. Get a grip people, you've been scammed. Oh sure you paid into it, but you pay taxes and get nothing for that too so quit whining.
That’s the biggest lie ever!! Fake news media keeps pushing the propaganda about SS and Medicare reduction or elimination. WHO is going to take care of people in their old age?? The government? Or just leave them homeless on the streets?
Not going to happen.
This is not tax relief so much as it's a tax incentive for individuals and businesses to buy specified items and for businesses to provide services or hire.
No taxes on insurance premiums and 50% off tolls each month. No tax on items people will buy anyways for school or hurricane prepared ess.
True, albeit I said it was more incentive than anything else. All the same, no relief offered will benefit me or many others.
Love our state of Florida and our Governor DeSantis... TY Gov!!
Thank you for the tax package cut for your tax paying citizens of Florida. In reading many concerns, they need the Real Estate Property taxes permanently removed for those over 60 who only have one primary residence and on fixed social security/pension as only income. Also, for those 59 and below, reduce the assessments so people don't lose their homes as they cannot pay the ridiculous property tax hikes.
Property tax should be illegal
Tax all the rich people down here and raise teacher pay, we are 50th in the nation and losing all our good educators.
what good ones? they cant even teach basic math and lit lol been that way since the 90s when they introduced that stupid "leave no kid behind" crap lol they dont deserve the pay they currently get, not interested in paying them more to not do the job they were hired for haha
dont worry the good ones are leaving bec there too woke
Seriously?? Lol. Have you no sense? Educate yourself.
Nah get rid of public schools entirely. The US education system is terrible in general and has only gotten worse..and it's extremely expensive for the tax payer. A huge portion of property taxes are for public schools. By eliminating public schools we'd cut property taxes DRAMATICALLY.
Private schools and homeschooling are the only good forms of child education.
Fantastic
Just as he raises insurance premiums again, he has to sign every single insurance premium increase. It goes across his desk for signature. And it’s public information how much insurance companies donated to his campaign. Millions !! Look it up.
Eliminate home taxes!!!
Wouldn’t you prefer to eliminate the income tax. I happily pay my home taxes because I see the benefits everyday. Income tax disappears into thin air.
@@rickybobby7276Florida has no income tax already....
@@sb2012 Federal income tax bro...
Tax on your labor is slavery pure and simple, this country was founded without an income tax for a reason!
The Only relief I and so many of us need is Home Insurance Premiums! I just received my renewal and it went up again by hundreds. This is getting out of hand now!
Hurricane season is swooping in...
@@malachi- We’ve always had hurricanes 🌀 in the history of Florida. Literally nothing has changed there’s no reason for these hikes.
@@fbanda20 Yes, it was more sarcastic, as if they had a justification to raise prices, in the first place, some more.
Winning my favor.
Anything for Renters we need help
Love you DeSantis!!! We love you here in Florida and i wish we had two of you to put the second in the Whitehouse
Thank you Governor DeSantis.!❤🎉😊
More tax cuts for billionaires
Educate yourself. Lol. You obviously don't know how money works. 😂
When Trump was prez, the middle class was wealthier. Hello. We're about to have a ton more fed taxes bc Trump's tax cuts are going to expire, and JB isn't renewing them.
All great things. I applaud you. However if you don't help us get affordable homeowners insurance, we must leave the state. Sell our homes that we love. Can't afford to keep our homes. My home owners insurance jumped to $12000 per yr. Last June. UP 250% from prior yr. Now citizens notified me they will no longer renew us in fl. Checked with another co. They want $18000 to renew me in June 2024. Ridiculous. I'm 75 yr old. Only get social security security. I don't even make that amount. We need help Now!
Best governor ever!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 wish to live in Florida again!
❤DeSantis thank you, now can you do something about insurance rates?
Ron crushing it as GOVERNOR... meanwhile Nikki Haley is still plotting WWIII and her box wine supply.
Ron is a great governor. Very happy with him. GOP in Florida is doing a great job. There is more work to do however.
I support and will obey Ron DeSantis forever!
To everyone complaining about the property tax and insurance, commenting here will not help. You need to petition for that, and if you already have, keep doing it!!!
I want to move to Florida but stuck in California. California is the worst run state with the highest taxes and only going up while here I am... enviously watching DeSantis tirelessly working on improving quality of life and reducing taxes/fee in Florida.
Love our Governor Ron DeSantis and our First Lady
Homes worth 500K or less for a tax relief would make more sense due to the average % of homeowners.
How about protecting the Withlacoochee River from being polluted by Valdosta Georgia's waste runoff pollution when there are large rains?
Toll relief does very little for North Central and West Florida. Gold and silver as recognized currency?
And Hoa too is out of control I’m paying 1500 I live in a condo in Miami Beach! And a property tax is more than 9k is crazy! I feel ripped out
Thank you Governor. You are the best.
Meanwhile, in California....
Have had some major quarrels with Ronald but this is great.
Your people can barely afford food, property taxes are up. Hm owners insurance just skyrocketed
Love ya Desantis ❤️
I'm not so sure about this. Property taxes keep rising!!!!😮 And im not a demacrat.
County not state! Quit voting democrat for local office.
I would happily send $600 to pay my share!!!
I love our governor. But when is he going to address the rampant abuse by insurance companies to home owners. This is of little help to us.
You have so many out side people why is your school tax not in your sales taxes.
