We don't even have an official address or a home for that matter here in Sarasota County but we've definitely paid our share in property taxes. That was one reality we struggled with when we first realized our taxes quadrupled after our purchase. We've come to terms with that only to get to the county's impact fees. Any new build here should expect to pay a one time fee of 19k by this time next year. This is up from 10k currently. Somehow I'd hope to have our building permit submitted in time to pay the current impact fee but who knows. I guess if we miss it by a week it will cost us another 10k. I feel like the county should just have my PIN number to save me the trouble of writing all the big checks.
