Estimate: asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × Volusia County rate (19.21 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 $4,950/yr ($412/mo) — taxable value $257,952 × 19.21 mills
$325 more each year
(+7%)
The current owner’s taxable value is below today’s asking price; after a sale the assessment is set from market value, so the estimated bill is higher. Exemptions and portability can reduce it.

Median of these 6 sales: $320,000 ($329/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.
$226,380the mess$366,520
Stronger local evidence — 6 comparable closed sales in Sunny Shores, closed within the last 18 months, same property type, living area within 30% of this home.
Actual list price: $325,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 62% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
Condition & updates — a 1957 home may have had its roof, kitchen, or HVAC replaced since, or not; sq ft can't see either.
The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
Outliers skew it — the band above comes from 6 nearby sales; one flip or distressed sale moves the whole $/sq ft.
Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
3 active listings competing
≈8.0 months of supply
7 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $325,000 ($332/sq ft). The list price is the seller's asking price and is not derived from this range.
Want a property-specific review from a licensed agent? A Momentum Realty agent will do a real, free comparative market analysis — walking the home, the lot, the condition, and the live market. That's the difference between a Messtimate and a valuation.
Methodology: 980 sq ft × $231–$374/sq ft (interquartile band of 6 comparable closed sales in Sunny Shores, last 18 months; MLS closed-sale records). Estimate for general information only; not an appraisal, valuation, or offer. Updated October 11, 2026.

Oct 2026 · Parks Amenities
Volusia County approves $13 million in ECHO grants for 10 projects
The council approved grants including $2.5 million each for Edgewater, Daytona Beach and the D Ranch Preserve nature center, plus a 250-foot Halifax River pier in Holly Hill, a boat dock in New Smyrna Beach, a DeBary splash pad and Port Orange's Willow Run Park.
Why it matters: Funds new waterfront access and park amenities across several Volusia communities. The site is about 5 miles south of Sunny Shores.
Manufacturing and technology job fair set for Oct. 15 at Daytona State
Germfree, B. Braun, Teledyne, Embler Control Systems, Bylight, Pall Corporation and the Electrical Training Alliance will recruit at the Advanced Technology College on Williamson Boulevard in Daytona Beach. The fair runs 2:30 to 5:30 p.m., with a morning session for Volusia high school students.
Why it matters: Shows active hiring by regional manufacturing and technology employers. The site is about 9 miles south of Sunny Shores.
VoTran changes routes Oct. 4, adds DeLand express and discontinues two routes
Route 61X adds weekday service between the Transfer Plaza and the DeLand ITF via I-4, while Routes 33 and 70 are discontinued. A new VoRide Sunday zone in the Daytona Beach area replaces fixed Sunday service on Routes 3, 4, 10 and 15. The County Council approved the changes on June 16.
Why it matters: Changes commute options between Daytona Beach and DeLand and shifts some service to on-demand rides. The site is about 8 miles south of Sunny Shores.
Port Orange council upholds award of $14.4 million Cambridge Canal pump station contract
The council voted 5-0 on Sept. 15 to deny a bid protest, keeping the $14.4 million contract with Gregori Construction for the Cambridge Canal and Pump Station upgrade. It is the city's largest stormwater project and aims to reduce flooding and tidal impacts. A formal contract award returns to the council.
Why it matters: Stormwater capacity upgrades bear on flood-risk management for nearby Port Orange areas. The project is about 13 miles south of Sunny Shores, elsewhere in Volusia County.

Items worth confirming for 18 Tropical Drive, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
Built in 1957 (69 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
The listing reports no HOA: confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to this parcel.
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 Volusia County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 18 Tropical Drive and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 18 Tropical Drive was built in 1957 and has 980 sq ft of living area, 2 bedrooms and 1.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 18 Tropical Drive in?
18 Tropical Drive is in Sunny Shores in Ormond Beach, Volusia County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 18 Tropical Drive have an HOA?
The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to the parcel.
Why might property taxes on 18 Tropical Drive differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $5,275 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $325 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+7%). 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 18 Tropical 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.

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. These figures may be inaccurate or out of date, are not appraisals, valuations, or financial, legal, tax, or investment advice, and should not be relied upon. Do not make any purchase, offer, financing, or other decision based on this page. Independently verify everything — price, square footage, lot size, year built, taxes, CDD/HOA, flood status, school assignments, permits, and community rules — with the listing broker, the county, your lender, a licensed inspector, an insurer, and your own advisors before acting.
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.
