The Monroe County Property Appraiser is responsible for identifying, locating and fairly valuing all property within the county for tax purposes.
The market value of real property is based on the current real estate market. Finding the "market" value of a property means discovering the price most people would pay for your property.
Determining a fair and equitable value is the only role of this office. It does not create the value. People make the value by buying and selling real estate in the market place. The property appraiser has the legal responsibility to study those transactions and appraise your property accordingly.
On the property appraisers website, www.mcpafl.org, users can search properties, view maps and aerials within Monroe County, learn about property tax exemptions and estimate property taxes.
