The unfortunate part of this bill and the current system it uses the definition of Homestead as it is currently defined. Over the years, many Florida homeowners have started renting there homes during the snowbird season (Jan to Mar) each year for additional income to help pay thier bills. Well, renting your home for more than 30 days a year, for two consequeive years casues you to loose your homestead exemption and your SOH protection. Yep, rent for a couple of months a year, live in it the remaining months, remain a Florida resident. Doesn't matter, homestead is gone and you are taxed like a commercial property with no homestead or SOH protection. The kicker is if you rent part of your home, say 25% every month, the supreme court has said your only loose 25% of the Homestead and SOH. Not so if you rent the entire home for 3 months or 25% of the year. Law needs to be changed so that Florida residents who are seasonal rentals of thier homes only loose part, not all, of there Homestead and SOH.
Florida just ended property taxes but there’s a catch. There is real money coming back to your pocket if this passes in November. But there's something buried inside this bill that every Florida homeowner needs to know about. Because what DeSantis actually wanted and what you're actually gonna vote on, are two very different things.
In this video I'll show you what your city's actually been doing with your property tax money, the language politicians slipped in that's gonna keep you paying thousands, and how your own tax dollars are funding a nonprofit that's designed to keep you paying property taxes. Let's jump in!
It was ok, until you got priced out. How does it feel to be used?

It would only be fair that, if you have children, you pay for their education, school boards, libraries, and so on. After all, those with children receive a substantial tax credit until the kids turn 18—or even older if they continue their studies. It isn't fair for a retiree to pay for things they don't use. .

Another MAGA channel.
@T12OCCI'm old. I saw enough of disappointment's great country and pretty cool state crumble to its lowest, but not yet rock bottom. It's getting there. Hopefully, I'll be dead before the sea rises up in the up and wash us all the way😂
@WandaLindaySigh 😕
@DONAVIN-0DeSantis is a crook. He stole from Medicaid just like Rick Scott.
@CandaceBlanton-xj2lvI trust my local mayor. I don't fully trust DeSantis or a lot of the current Florida politicians who are pushing for "no property tax". You know what they say, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
@SpreadKindnessAlwaysI'm all for education, so I don't mind a portion of my property taxes going for that. But I sure would like to know what they're doing with all that money since the schools don't seem to be getting better and they actually closed some in my city..
@SpreadKindnessAlwaysThe way people drive and act in Florida I wouldn't live there if you gave me a house for free 😆😆😆 LoL
@BC-fy3rdI would do my own research on this topic rather than believe everything he is saying in this video.
Friend of mine in another state (Ohio) said they were talking about doing away with property taxes there, but they were going to raise the county tax to compensate for it. Each county will have to get that money from somewhere. Don't kid yourself. I will be voting "no" because "the devil you know is better than the devil you don't." At least I know how much to plan for with my current property taxes. Also, I don't want to lose any community services (they would certainly have to cut something). I do not want any fire departments, police, or any other services to be cut.
If I have to pay school taxes, as a 70 year old retiree, parents of school age children should not be able to use them as a tax exemption. If I'm paying for their kids, let them pay for their kids too.
@JimPNY55I'm sure the crooked Henry family of Volusia county is part of the FLC. They are such thieves it makes me sick
@christinajones3022Anyone who believes this is going to come out in our favor is living in fantasyland.
@SpreadKindnessAlways55 and over community should not pay school taxes. It’s ridiculous.
@christinanapolitano6837Make sure you know the full impact. Right now town officials are scrambling for ways to handle significant loss of revenue which affects road/bridge repair, parks & recreation maintenance, code enforcement and libraries. New taxes are being considered along with increasing rates for water and sewer. Death and taxes! Either way they will find a way to get your money.
@justoneman3916Big NO vote
@vivaldikmdWe have to stop these fraudsters & dirty Politician that fill their pockets and their NGO'S !! WE HAVE TO STOP THE FRAUD!!!
@lol4u-y7naaaaaaaannnnnnnnd, you still never own your home. Who didn't see that coming? Looks like i get to keep paying rent on my fully paid off Florida home. Well, at least he tried.
@jodejr1813I thought the special session was so that the bill couldn't get watered down? Wasn't that the whole idea?
@da324Great info, thx
@rafaeldelgado1365The county and city are violating your right to contract, (constitutionally and Internationally protected right), the fair bargaining act of 1880 is also good to know.👁️ Information rules the nation.
@mauricelarson7263Nice..
@AnibalRamos-tw5bbWe want to see audit findings and audit schedules of which counties when!!
@Canetracker92You can BET there are so many NGO’s that were set up to steal our money! These audits have to continue and be made public! We want to know what elected officials have been spending money on! THAT should be a requirement before any election where an incumbent is running!
@Canetracker92What if I’ve lived in Florida for 8 years as an established resident but have rented the entire time…. ?
@danielmartin871Interesting presentation. The use of 'taxpayer monies' to create social constructs to undermine our God-given rights and enslave us by robbing our labor via our paychecks to support the fiat money system has been going on since the mid 1800's. This is nothing new. The real problem is FIAT MONEY + IRS MONOPOLY ON LABOR + CORPORATE STRUCTURE OF SOCIETY all PROTECTED BY GOVERNMENT. That's equivalent to ancient Roman latifundia. In a word: SLAVERY ruled by "the idle rich". So until you get rid of those 3 big monsters, nothing will change. And nothing good will come from any of this.
@chriscadman5715no kids, no school tax. own home, no tax at all. They jake the gravy train on taxes, not police/fire/ and roads.
@no_handle_requiredI don’t live in Florida, but this is a great public service announcement. I hope enough people see this and support the reforms!
@William-c9c9iGrant unless there’s new news on tax why beat this subject into the ground weekly 😂
@2hotscottproSchool taxes are where the fraud is. Giving grants to NGO
@milo_in_srq5762All Florida will do on the exemption amount is take notes from Georgia and value your home at WAY above market value. Back to no reduction.
@ScottKiser-v2oGrant you do great work but don't spread lies. Dei ONLY helped white women
@choco.es.secretTravis from Real Estate Mindset and Mitch Vexler are suing the state of TX for property tax corruption in the school districts. The school districts here in FL are just as corrupt, FAFO should investigate them. What they are doing is illegal and unconstitutional and they are committing fraud here in FL too but no one is doing anything about it .
@ms.cordero2784The "Detroit Threat Management Center" Is proof positive that police and fire do not need to be funded with taxes. Not only that, but their performance record puts the police to shame for a fraction of the cost allowing them to provide the service to the less fortunate free of cost. People, gov't is, and always has been a con.
@EnFuego79Don't be scare of the scare tactics. Be informed and make good decisions.
@christo2974Vote Jay Colins
@denisewatkins6547I don’t trust Byron Donald’s if he gets in
@denisewatkins6547DeSantis has done nothing for Florida. Pushed division and hate while doing nothing for high insurance, real estate and numerous other problems. Education is at the bottom because teachers pay ranked 50th. The citizens born and raised in Florida can't afford to live in Florida.
@kaikenjrThe problem with property taxes is twofold:
1. It's literal feudalism to have to keep paying for something you supposedly "bought" and
2. It' fund the societal scourge of public schooling which is a fraud in two ways:
1. It's literal stated intent was not education, but blind obedience to state proposed "authority" (2x teacher of the year, John Taylor Gatto, has many excellent books tracing the history, intent and effects of public schooling)
2. It has been shown conclusively by Vexler of "Real Estate Mindset" to be a massive Ponzi scheme/fraud operation run by virtually every municipality in the country
In short, you must eliminate BOTH the property tax AND public schooling to remotely being to remedy the problem.
I think it's sad.These are american people against american people
@williamthomas3415But the republicans in the florida legislator should just be democrats, especially the leader of the republicans.He might as well just join the democrats
@williamthomas3415Are they stil going to raise the Mil rate. ???
@pattibrower9432The city and county politicians will come up with new and creative ways to get that tax revenue back. Higher gas tax, higher motel/hotel room tax, higher water bills, higher traffic fines etc...they aren't about to give up that money and be forced to tighten their belts.
@gregsmith7949I’m very confused. Sorry, I’ve never lived in Florida. In New England, the proper taxes are not itemized. I have family in Florida in Bonita springs and there taxes are itemized. Property taxes schools and other services show us as a line item. So, me being ignorant thought eliminating the property taxes wouldn’t effect services like fireman, police, schools, etc. can someone break down the truth for me.
@JeffDoak-w4iSo, you said before that this bill would eliminate even the public school assessments on property taxes. Now you say that is not so. Can you clarify?
@michelemartinesu6772I rent a home I own in Ormond Beach. Does this mean I’ll have to pay more property taxes?
@Dusty42096Dude, your an idiot. People should get there information from someone who knows the facts.
