So in addition to not understanding the way lenders work, insurance companies work, and real-estate values are determined, we can add tax appraisals to the list of items you're ignorant about.

The owner of a property has NO role in determining the taxable value of real estate. No document of Trump's is, or ever would be used in arriving at his property's tax value. That determination is the sole responsibility of the taxing authority, under State law. The only potential role for the property owner is in their ability to contest a valuation when a periodic revaluation is performed. If the county valued it in a range of $18-$37 million, that's on them. (but I'd also note that they don't have values in ranges - they have a specific tax-value. The 2023 value was $37 million.)

BUT, in Florida, tax values and appraisals are not estimates of true market value. In fact, the County appraiser's office includes this disclaimer on their web-site: "BUYERS TAKE NOTE: Taxes will change and often increase substantially when a property sells. The seller’s exemption benefits will GO AWAY the year after they sell and this may result in higher taxes for a buyer."

And your citation? A (bitter) partisan Democrat - Jared Moskowitz. Just 'cause a Democrat says it, doesn't make it true. That's as true for Moskowitz as it is for the NY judge and Leticia James.

I notice that your references and citations all point back to Democrats. Why is that?

“That determination is the sole responsibility of the taxing authority, under State law.”

If that’s the case, then I guess the documents submitted by Trump and were detgermined over inflated by the court didn’t mean anything. But he sure called them fraudulent. Don’t bother me anymore. You talk in circles and only go by party affiliation and not the law. Go away. You’re a hack.
