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.
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.
Certified 2025 tax roll values for this parcel (Florida DOR). The roll gives values, not the bill; the current owner’s bill above is estimated from the taxable value.

Price & listing history
Building permits
Comparable recent sales
Only 1 closed sale within about 10 miles in Lake County in the last 18 months matched this home’s type and size. Fewer than 3 is too few for a median, so none is shown.
Limited comparable data: these sales are listed for reference only. A licensed agent can prepare a property-specific comparative market analysis. Sold prices are MLS closed-sale records, deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
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 Lake County in the last 18 months. Only 1 qualifies for this home, so no dollar range is shown. It is not an appraisal or a valuation.
Methodology: the range would be 588 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 11, 2026.
Momentum Property Score
62/100 is solid, mid-pack across the objective indicators below. It reflects only those measures — not the home’s quality, condition, or desirability.
A 0-100 score built from objective property and market data: flood risk, insurance, pricing, supply, affordability, and recent sales. Higher means more measures line up in a buyer’s favor. It reflects only the factors below.
Coverage: 3 of 8 indicators had valid data for this home; indicators without data are left out, not scored as zero. Momentum Scores are objective, rules-based indicators computed from listing facts, public records, and recent comparable sales. They do not measure property condition, quality, or investment suitability, and they are not appraisals, valuations, investment advice, or judgments about a neighborhood or who should live there.

Buyer research checklist
Items worth confirming for 55914 Bay Road, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 1965 (61 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 Lake County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
- Listed living area is 588 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 $1,075/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $250 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+30%). 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 55914 Bay Road and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 55914 Bay Road was built in 1965 and has 588 sq ft of living area, 1 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 55914 Bay Road in?
55914 Bay Road is in Astor Forest Campsites in Astor, Lake 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 55914 Bay Road 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 55914 Bay Road differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $1,075 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $250 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+30%). 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 55914 Bay Road 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.

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.
