At GROVELAND VILLAS AT GREEN GATE’s $315,000 median and Lake County’s adopted 16.65 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $5,240 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $4,570 with the full Florida homestead exemption — a buyer’s first-year figure; a long-time owner’s Save Our Homes cap can be far lower, which is one reason resale taxes jump at closing.
