Estimate: asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × Broward County rate (19.84 mills, adopted 2025 millage). Not a bill.
⚠️

Property taxes in Florida are reassessed after a sale, so a buyer’s first full-year bill can be higher than the seller’s. Budget from this estimate, not the current bill, before you make an offer.

Current owner’s estimated bill $9,650/yr ($804/mo) — taxable value $486,318 × 19.84 mills
$10,200 more each year
(+106%)

Most of this comes from Florida’s Save Our Homes assessment cap resetting when the home sells — the current owner’s protected assessment does not transfer to a new buyer.

How it stacks up

Comparable recent sales

6 closed sales within about 3 miles in the last 18 months — same property type, living area within 30% of this home. Sold prices are MLS closed-sale records, deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

Median of these 6 sales: $1,237,500 ($400/sq ft). Stronger local evidence. Shown for general reference only — not an appraisal or a statement of this home’s value.

The Messtimate™

The Messtimate

This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.

$1,147,370the mess$1,383,046

Stronger local evidence — 6 comparable closed sales within about 3 miles, closed within the last 18 months, same property type, living area within 30% of this home.

Actual list price: $1,050,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.

A 21% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:

  • Condition & updates — a 1997 home may have had its roof, kitchen, or HVAC replaced since, or not; sq ft can't see either.
  • The lot — this listing is waterfront; water frontage is priced far off a per-sq-ft average of the neighborhood.
  • Outliers skew it — the band above comes from 6 nearby sales; one flip or distressed sale moves the whole $/sq ft.
  • Carrying costs & concessions — this home carries HOA dues of $384/mo; with insurance and any seller-paid buydown, that changes what a buyer actually pays, and a sq ft estimate ignores all of it.

And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:

  • 8957 active listings competing, 1841 under contract
  • 12 closed here in the last 12 months

For reference, this home is listed at $1,050,000 ($339/sq ft). The list price is the seller's asking price and is not derived from this range.

Before you decide

Buyer research checklist

Items worth confirming for 16729 Amber Lake, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.

  • Built in 1997 (29 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
  • HOA dues are listed at $384/mo: request the current budget, reserves, and rules before relying on that figure or on any restriction.
  • Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and confirm with your insurer whether flood insurance is required.
  • Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Broward County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
  • Waterfront: confirm seawall or dock condition and permits, and ask who owns and maintains the shoreline.
  • Listed living area is 3,101 sq ft: verify it against the property appraiser's record and measure before relying on it.
  • Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
  • Review permit history with the county.
  • Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $19,850/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $10,200 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+106%). Exemptions and portability change the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser.
  • School zoning shown here comes from district data and changes; confirm the assigned schools directly with the district before relying on them.

Frequently asked questions

How big is 16729 Amber Lake and when was it built?

Per the listing record, 16729 Amber Lake was built in 1997 and has 3,101 sq ft of living area, 5 bedrooms and 3.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.

What community is 16729 Amber Lake in?

16729 Amber Lake is in Amber-Ruby Cove Plat in Weston, Broward County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.

Does 16729 Amber Lake have an HOA, and how much are the dues?

The listing reports HOA dues of $384 per month. Dues, what they cover, and the community's rules should be confirmed from the association's current documents before relying on them.

Why might property taxes on 16729 Amber Lake differ from the current owner's?

The estimate on this page (about $19,850 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $10,200 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+106%). Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.

Is 16729 Amber Lake in a flood zone?

A flood designation has not been verified for this address. Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and confirm with your insurer.

Can I rely on the figures on this page?

No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.
