Florida Resident Guide

Florida voters approved Amendment 3 on November 3, 2026. It raises the non-school homestead exemption to $150,000 in 2027 and $250,000 in 2028 — but only for people who were Florida residents on December 31, 2026. Later residents start at about $50,000 and wait until year five for the full amount. Alex and Sarah explain what passed, what the deadline means, what counts as residency, and the five steps to take before December 31.
