Lee County property tax appeal
Lee County homeowners file Form DR-486 with the Value Adjustment Board within 25 days of the TRIM notice. Cape Coral, Fort Myers, and Estero petitions rely on neighborhood comps; post-Ian condition and insurance documentation strengthen the informal review.

What works in Lee County
Lee County still adjudicates many post-Hurricane Ian condition claims; submit dated repair invoices and FEMA flood-zone data.
Across Florida, the strongest single-family appeals pair three to five recent comparable sales with documented property condition. See the evidence and comps guide for what the VAB special magistrate will weigh.
