The Commercial Valuation Department of the Osceola County Property Appraiser Office of the Real Estate Appraiser is responsible for all real estate and tangible property not considered residential or agricultural property in the county.
All properties are revalued annually to determine changes in market value. The valuation date is January 1 of each year, and values are analyzed based on the previous year’s sales data. Valuation communications are sent in August each year, so recent market changes may not be reflected in your estimated value but will be factored into next year’s valuation.

All properties are revalued annually to determine changes in market value. The valuation date is January 1 of each year, and values are analyzed using sales data from previous years. Valuation communications are sent in August each year, so recent market changes may not be reflected in your estimated value but will be factored into next year’s valuation.
There are generally three main ways to determine the value of a property:
The cost approach considers current land values and construction costs, which are amortized through physical, functional, and economic value effects.
The sales comparison method compares properties of a similar type to see how many properties are selling in comparison units, such as B. Price per square foot, price per number of units, price per room, and so on. with adjustments for differences in condition, size, amenities, etc. in properties.
The income capitalization approach examines a property’s income potential, and then the net income is capitalized at the typical rates investors expect their investment to be.
Most properties are valued using comprehensive valuation techniques. These techniques compare many sold properties and then, through statistical analysis, add the appraised value of the improvements to the property’s market value. This method primarily uses cost and revenue comparison data.
Property typically purchased for their income and investment potential, such as hotels, malls, and apartments, can give the income focus the most weight in your analysis.
Each property valuation is conducted fairly and equitably. Florida State law requires that all properties be valued at 100% of their fair value as defined by the State. Valuations are based on historical market sales “at market conditions,” primarily using the prior year to determine the current value.
