Portability
Portability is for Florida homestead owners wishing to sell one property and buy another.
Portability is the ability to transfer the savings benefit of the homestead property assessment limitation known as “Save Our Homes” (SOH) and described as the value difference between just/market value and assessed value of a property, or the percentage thereof from one existing homestead to another new homestead property.
See www.sjcpa.us
Insurance
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)
Pricing of flood insurance is based upon the amount and type of coverage being purchased, location, flood zone, and the design and age of your structure. For homes in high-risk areas (e.g., Special Flood Hazard Areas or AE, VE Zones) built after the first Flood Insurance Rate Maps were drawn for that community, the elevation of the building in relation to the base flood elevation is also required.

Homeowner’s & Wind Insurance
Pricing of home and wind insurance is based upon location, the replacement cost of the structure, building code compliance, and use (primary, secondary or rental).
See a licensed insurance broker for a home and wind insurance quote.
