DATA ACCURACY AND SUITABILITY:

As authorized by Florida Statutes, the MANATEE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER provides online access to public records and information as it provides the general public with an additional and convenient method of viewing, inspecting and copying public records.

The information available on this Website was compiled and maintained by the MANATEE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER for the sole purpose of creating the annual property tax roll pursuant to Florida law, and may not be appropriate or suitable for any other use.

While the MANATEE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER makes every effort to produce and publish the most current and accurate information possible, it makes no warranties, expressed or implied, concerning the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of the information contained on this Website. Furthermore, the MANATEE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER assumes no liability whatsoever associated with the use or misuse of the information provided on this Website, or any loss resulting therefrom.

BUILDING SIZES AND DIMENSIONS:

All square footage estimates are derived from exterior wall measurements which is the standard in the appraisal industry. Builders frequently use interior dimensions and they may differ from those on our records. Property owners may want to verify their square footage by taking external wall measurements and comparing them with ours.

LAND USE AND ZONING REGULATIONS:

Land use codes listed on the tax roll are established pursuant to Florida law and reflect the current actual use of the property. They are not zoning designations, do not reflect allowed uses of, or use restriction on the property. The MANATEE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER has no role in establishing, changing, or enforcing zoning or building codes. Each municipality and the unincorporated areas have their own zoning and land use regulations, which are not reflected on or determined by the tax roll. Any zoning or land use questions should be directed to the municipality in which the property is located, or the Manatee County Building Department if the property lies in an unincorporated area.

PARCEL MAP:

The MANATEE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER Parcel Map is not a substitute for a title search or land survey. The Parcel Map is maintained solely for the purpose of creating the annual property tax roll pursuant to Florida law, and may not be appropriate for any other use.

The Parcel Map should not be relied upon by any individual or entity for determining property boundaries, property ownership, or the state of title, liens, encumbrances, easements, zoning, property use, or taxes. Any such reliance is at the user’s own risk.

While the MANATEE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER makes every effort to produce and publish the most current and accurate information possible, it makes no warranties, expressed or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, suitability, or timeliness of the information contained on the Parcel Map. The MANATEE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER assumes no liability whatsoever associated with the use or misuse of the information provided on the Parcel Map, or any loss resulting therefrom.
