⚠️

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 $14,875/yr ($1,240/mo) — taxable value $774,416 × 19.21 mills

(+16%)

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.

What it really costs to own 5501 S Atlantic Avenue #3070

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 taxThe current owner's bill is about $14,875/yr (certified county roll, taxable value × millage). Buy at the asking price of $950,000 and the first-year bill resets to about $17,300/yr (the parcel is matched to the certified roll; asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × 19.21 mills); Save Our Homes caps later increases at 3%/yr.
HOA dues$993/month per the listing record. Dues cover what the association documents say they cover; ask for the budget and reserve study before you close.
Home and flood insuranceThe average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Volusia County is $1,807/yr (3,573 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 $4,500–$9,000/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone VE, 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 ageBuilt in 1973. An original roof would be about 53 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.

Estimated carrying cost at the asking price, before the mortgage: about $2,585/month (tax $1,442, HOA $993, insurance $151). An estimate from the sources above, not a quote; the monthly-cost calculator on this page adds the loan.

Insurance (illustrative range)

How it stacks up

Comparable recent sales

No closed sales of a similar home within about 10 miles in Volusia County in the last 18 months are in our MLS data set, so this page shows no comparable-sales median or automated estimate for SANDPIPER TOWERS CONDO. A licensed Momentum Realty agent can prepare a property-specific comparative market analysis on request.

The Messtimate™

The Messtimate

Insufficient local evidence for an automated estimate. The Messtimate is a deliberately simple range — living area × recent closed-sale $/sq ft from comparable homes nearby — and it only renders when at least 3 defensible sales exist within about 10 miles in Volusia County in the last 18 months. None qualify for this home, so no dollar range is shown. It is not an appraisal or a valuation.

Want a property-specific value review? A licensed Momentum Realty agent can prepare a free comparative market analysis using the home, the lot, its condition, and the live market.

Methodology: the range would be 1,299 sq ft × the interquartile $/sq ft of comparable closed sales (same property type, living area within 30%, closed within 18 months, nearest verified subdivision, 3-mile, then 10-mile same-county stage). Estimate for general information only; never an appraisal, valuation, or offer. Updated October 14, 2026.

Before you decide

Buyer research checklist

Items worth confirming for 5501 S Atlantic Avenue #3070, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.

  • Built in 1973 (53 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 VE: 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 Volusia County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
  • Private pool: confirm the barrier or alarm meets the state residential pool safety code and ask for pump, heater, and resurfacing records.
  • Waterfront: confirm seawall or dock condition and permits, and ask who owns and maintains the shoreline.
  • Listed living area is 1,299 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 $17,300/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $2,425 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+16%). 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 5501 S Atlantic Avenue #3070 and when was it built?

Per the listing record, 5501 S Atlantic Avenue #3070 was built in 1973 and has 1,299 sq ft of living area, 2 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 5501 S Atlantic Avenue #3070 in?

5501 S Atlantic Avenue #3070 is in Sandpiper Towers Condo in New Smyrna Beach, Volusia 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.

Does 5501 S Atlantic Avenue #3070 have an HOA, and how much are the dues?

The listing reports HOA dues of $993 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 5501 S Atlantic Avenue #3070 differ from the current owner's?

The estimate on this page (about $17,300 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $2,425 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+16%). 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 5501 S Atlantic Avenue #3070 in a flood zone?

The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone VE, 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.
