Property taxes
✓ Certified tax roll · county-average rateProperty 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.
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.

What it really costs to own 775 Gulf Shore Drive #19
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 about $5,475/yr (certified county roll, taxable value × millage). Buy at the asking price of $610,000 and the first-year bill resets to about $7,225/yr (the parcel is matched to the certified roll; asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × 12.89 mills (county-average millage, estimate)); Save Our Homes caps later increases at 3%/yr. |
|---|---|
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Okaloosa County is $2,644/yr (1,101 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 $3,000–$6,000/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone AE, a high-risk zone where flood insurance is required with a federally backed mortgage. Statewide, a zone A/AE/VE flood policy runs about $1,200–$2,500/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not a quote). |
| Roof and age | Built in 1980. An original roof would be about 46 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report and ask for the roof permit date. |

Buyer research checklist
Items worth confirming for 775 Gulf Shore Drive #19, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 1980 (46 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
- Condominium: request the association's budget, reserves, the most recent milestone or structural inspection report, and two years of meeting minutes before relying on the dues.
- FEMA flood zone AE: lenders generally require flood insurance here — get an elevation certificate and a flood quote before the inspection period ends.
- Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Okaloosa 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 $7,225/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $1,750 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+32%). 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 775 Gulf Shore Drive #19 and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 775 Gulf Shore Drive #19 was built in 1980 and has 3 bedrooms and 2.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 775 Gulf Shore Drive #19 in?
775 Gulf Shore Drive #19 is in Sandpiper Cove Ph 07 in Destin, Okaloosa 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 775 Gulf Shore Drive #19 differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $7,225 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $1,750 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+32%). 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 775 Gulf Shore Drive #19 in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone AE, a special flood hazard area where lenders generally require flood insurance on a mortgaged purchase. Confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer, and ask for an elevation certificate.
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.
