At SECLUSION BAY’s $1,594,900 median and Walton County’s adopted 9.758 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $15,560 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $15,180 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. Municipal and special-district millage varies inside the county; see the Walton County tax page.
Current asking prices run a median $1,524,950 against the $1,594,900 recorded sold median (-4%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows.
Cash bought 0% of recorded SECLUSION BAY sales in the window ending 2026-07 (0 of 4) — a fact worth knowing before assuming every buyer needs an appraisal to close. Asking prices here currently sit -4% under the recorded sold median — sellers are pricing to move, and the closed record above is the number a buyer's appraiser will see.
