What works in Pinellas County

Coastal Pinellas comps need an insurance and flood-zone overlay; documented post-2024 storm impact often moves the needle.

Across Florida, the strongest single-family appeals pair three to five recent comparable assessments with documented property condition. See the evidence and comps guide for what the VAB special magistrate will weigh.
