How property tax appeals work in Volusia County
Florida property owners have a right to challenge their assessed value under Florida Statutes §194.011. In Volusia County, petitions are filed with the Value Adjustment Board (VAB), administered by the Clerk of Court, the VCPA (Volusia County Property Appraiser) handles the underlying valuation.
The petition window is 25 days after the TRIM notice is mailed. For Volusia County, TRIM notices typically mail around Aug 17, 2026, putting the 2026 petition deadline at approximately Sept 11, 2026. The filing fee is $15 per parcel.
Daytona Beach oceanfront condos and Port Orange single-family homes appreciated sharply through 2023, many 2026 notices still reflect peak pricing.
The strongest petitions include 3-5 comparable sales from the last 12 months in your immediate neighborhood, adjusted for square footage, year built, and condition. Many counties use the Axia e-filing portal for VAB submissions, your kit works with both online and paper filing.
