OPINION: Over a Million Florida Homes Have No Insurance — The Property Tax Cut Could Change That

Florida just handed homeowners a real win. Amendment 3 passed on November 3 with 62% of the vote, expanding the homestead exemption from $50,000 to $150,000 in 2027 and $250,000 in 2028. For the average Broward County homeowner, that’s roughly $1,300 back in their pocket next year. By 2028, estimates run between $2,300 and $2,700 depending on where you live. — Broward County Property Appraiser Marty Kiar (NBC Miami, 2026); Craig Kincheloe (Bay News 9, 2026)
