Florida Property Tax Notices Coming This Month…Is Yours Too High?

Each August, property appraisers in Florida send out Truth In Millage (TRIM) notices to all property owners. These TRIM notices show the property tax assessments for 2012, as well as estimated taxes for the year. Property owners have just 25 days from the mailing of the TRIM notice to review the valuation and challenge the assessment on the property.
