Joni, If you are a 1 st time home buyer (or have not owned a home in 3 years) you can apply for the $8,000 tax credit toward the purchase of a home. When you buy a home you are also should file for the Homestead tax exemption. Veterans who are totally and permanently disabled due to a service-connected injury, are entitled to a total exemption from property taxes on homesteaded property.

I would be happy to work with you on the purchase of a home and anwser any questions you may have.

Hi,

In Florida you have a reduced tax rate, as part of our Homestead package. Presently there is the $8000 first time home buyer, assuming you are new here, etc. No sales tax advantage.
