Every one of these homes went up after Florida adopted its statewide building code in 2002. In practice, that usually means impact-rated openings and stronger roof attachment. A wind mitigation inspection documents those features, and Florida insurers must offer premium discounts for them.

Placid Ridge has new construction. Builders usually require your agent to register you on the first visit, so bring your agent or call us before you walk in.

Here is what the median Placid Ridge price means in Florida closing terms. At $358,000, a 20% down payment comes to about $72,000, leaving a loan near $286,000.

Florida then taxes that loan twice. First, documentary stamp tax on the note runs 35 cents per $100, or about $1,002. Next, the intangible tax of 0.2% adds about $573. Buyers normally pay both at closing.

On the seller side, Florida deed stamps cost 70 cents per $100 of price. At the Placid Ridge median, that is about $2,506.

Finally, owner-occupants should file for the Florida homestead exemption by March 1. It removes up to $50,000 of assessed value. After that, Save Our Homes caps yearly assessment increases at 3% or inflation, whichever is lower. To see what these numbers mean for your budget, get pre-approved before you tour.
