What it really costs to own 178 Belaire Drive
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from this listing's MLS record, the county tax roll, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| Property tax | The current owner's bill is $4,153/yr per the MLS listing record (TaxAnnualAmount, 2026-11-08). Florida reassesses at sale, so a buyer's first bill is usually higher than the seller's; the county millage here is not verified, so no reset figure is printed. |
|---|---|
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Bay County is $1,928/yr (1,264 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes differ by roof age, wind mitigation and distance to the coast. The page's modeled range for this home is $4,000–$8,500/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone X, outside the high-risk zone; flood insurance is optional but most lenders and insurers recommend it. Statewide, a zone X flood policy runs about $500–$700/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not a quote). |
| Roof and age | Built in 2026. A newer roof and current wind-mitigation features usually mean the lower end of insurance quotes; ask for the wind-mitigation form. |
Flood zone & elevation
Sourced environmental data for the parcel. Confirm with FEMA and your insurer.
From the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer. In this zone lender-required flood insurance is generally not mandated; confirm for the parcel.
Approximate parcel elevation from USGS; confirm exact elevation with a survey.
Bay County is on the Florida coast; wind coverage is a major part of the premium. Premiums and coverage vary by home (roof age, wind mitigation, claims history); obtain a quote from a licensed insurer.

Items worth confirming for 178 Belaire Drive, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- New construction: get the builder's warranty terms and the certificate of occupancy in writing, and ask which finishes shown are upgrades.
- Confirm whether a mandatory HOA applies to this parcel and what it charges.
- FEMA flood zone X: flood insurance is not usually required, but get a quote anyway — FEMA reports roughly one in four flood claims come from outside high-risk zones.
- Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Bay County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
- Confirm square footage and room dimensions independently.
- Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
- Review permit history with the county.
- Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $19,425/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price; the seller's current bill is not a guide Exemptions and portability change the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser.
- Confirm school zoning directly with the district.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 178 Belaire Drive and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 178 Belaire Drive was built in 2026 and has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 178 Belaire Drive in?
178 Belaire Drive is in Santa Monica Beach in Panama City Beach, Bay County. Too few comparable closed sales exist nearby for this page to show local sales statistics; a licensed agent can prepare a comparative market analysis.
Why might property taxes on 178 Belaire Drive differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $19,425 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. 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 178 Belaire Drive in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone X, outside the special flood hazard area, so flood insurance is not usually required by a lender. It is still available and worth quoting; confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and 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.

Estimates, methodology & disclaimers
Opinion & estimate — do not rely on this page. Any figure on this page that is not a verbatim fact from the listing or a public record — including estimated property taxes, insurance, CDD/HOA amounts, mortgage payments, comparable-sales summaries, and market statistics — is an opinion and estimate provided for general informational purposes only.

Do not make any purchase, offer, financing, or other decision based on this page.

Estimate methodology. Tax estimates apply county millage to the list price (less the homestead exemption where the parcel is matched to the certified roll) and will differ from the actual assessed bill. Cost and market figures are derived from available data and simple calculations, not a professional appraisal. We make no representation that any estimate reflects fair market value.
