Installment payment plan

Flagler County taxpayers may pay property taxes quarterly through the installment payment plan when the estimated taxes are more than $100. The first installment must be paid by June 30 to receive the discount, and a late first payment may be accepted without the discount if paid by July 31.

Applications are available online beginning November 1 for the following year’s taxes and must be submitted by April 30 of the applying year. Additional plan details are on the installment payment plan page.

Understanding the tax notice

The tax notice includes the account number, owner and mailing address, legal description, amount due, payment options, reminders, and deadline information. Pay only the amount due for the month you are paying, because discounts are reflected by month.

If the owner address or legal description is incorrect, the Tax Collector directs users to contact the Flagler County Property Appraiser’s Office. The Tax Collector also notes that owners remain responsible for finding out the amount due and paying before delinquency even if they do not receive a tax bill.

Real estate and tangible property taxes

Ad valorem property taxes are based on real property value for the tax year running January 1 through December 31. Non-ad valorem assessments are set amounts from taxing authorities and are included on the tax notice.

Tangible personal property tax applies to furniture, fixtures, and equipment in businesses and rental properties, and to structural additions of a mobile home. The assessed value is based on January 1 status.

Tangible personal property taxpayers must file a Tangible Tax Return with the Flagler County Property Appraiser’s Office before April 1 to avoid a penalty and possibly qualify for the Amendment 1 exemption of up to $25,000. More information is available on the tangible personal property taxes page.

Tax certificates and tax deed process

A tax certificate is an enforceable first lien for unpaid real estate taxes. It is not a purchase of the property. Flagler County tax certificate sales begin on or before June 1 for the preceding year’s delinquent real estate taxes.

Before the sale, delinquent taxes are advertised for 3 consecutive weeks in a local newspaper. Certificates are sold individually, with bidding beginning at 18% and moving down in quarter-percent increments.

A tax deed application may be started by a certificate or lien holder when the certificate is 2 years old from the date of delinquency and before 7 years from the original issue date. Tax deed sales are scheduled and conducted by the Flagler County Clerk of Courts Office.
