What works in Seminole County

Seminole's school-zone effect on price is pronounced; same-school-zone comps outperform same-radius comps here.

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.
