Broward PAO

The Broward County Property Appraiser, led by Marty Kiar, is a public office serving property owners and prospective buyers in Broward County, Florida. Its website provides property search tools and information about property assessments, exemptions, ownership records, and related services. Residents can apply for Homestead, senior, veteran, and other exemptions, learn about portability, and use tax and homebuyer estimators to explore potential costs and savings. The office also offers downloadable forms, maps and aerial imagery, market sales information, FAQs, and assistance through its staff.

Property owners can sign up for Owner Alert, a free notification service that flags documents received by the office that may change property ownership. The site also provides guidance for reporting catastrophic structural damage, accessing property data, and contacting the office or requesting information. The Property Appraiser explains that it determines assessed values for tax roll purposes but does not send tax bills or set or collect taxes; billing and collection are handled by the Broward County Tax Collector.
