BLK-9 Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 I am wondering if anyone on the forum has information on RV Property Tax in Florida as compared to Virginia. I am a Virginia resident planning to full-time within the year. I am looking for information on cost of RV Property in Florida (escapee residence) so i can compare it the cost of RV Property Tax in Virginia. Thanks.

Dutch_12078 Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 If you mean real estate property tax, Florida ranks 29th lowest compared to Virginia's 16th place according to Market Watch. If you're thinking of vehicle taxes though, Florida ranks first with no tax, while Virgina ranks the worst at number 50 in the same listing.

Dutch_12078 Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Well, Florida is a good choice from that aspect then. That 100% reduction in your current RV tax rate should be attractive!

nana25k Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Same for Texas and South Dakota. Leaving VA was the best thing we ever did. Just make sure you make sure you cut all ties to VA. They are aggressive about making sure they get every penny out of you as you probable already know Ron & LindaClass of 20072000 Monaco Diplomat 2005 Honda Element"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are" Theodore Roosevelt"We can't control the wind, but we can adjust our sail""When man gave up his freedom to roam the earth, he gave up his soul for a conditioned ego that is bound by time and the fear of losing its attachments."

Kirk W Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 First of all, welcome to the Escapee forums! We are happy that you have joined us. I am wondering if anyone on the forum has information on RV Property Tax in Florida as compared to Virginia. Neither FL nor TX charge any personal property tax on RVs and vehicles, but they do have licensing fees which are partly tax. Vehicle registration fees by state............

Miller205 Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 BLK-9, personal property tax in Virginia is decided by the county. I live in Prince William county, and there is no personal property tax for RVs. Mike & K.

Kirk, do you mean to say that TX and FL have no sales tax on the purchase of a RV or vehicle, just a licensing fee? I thought only MT did not have sales tax?? 2015 Itasca Ellipse 42QD 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock Edition 2021 Harley Street Glide Special Fulltimer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk W Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 Kirk, do you mean to say that TX and FL have no sales tax on the purchase of a RV or vehicle, just a licensing fee? I thought only MT did not have sales tax?? No, that was not what I was saying. Actually, there are 4 states that have no sales tax, but neither TX nor FL are among them. They are Delaware, Montana, Oregon, and New Hampshire. What I did say was that some states have a tax each year on motor vehicles, usually called a personal property tax that is levied on each vehicle, but neither TX nor FL have such. You need to be careful in comparing the cost of vehicle licensing in the various states you need to make sure that there is no such tax which is in addition to the annual license fee. The reply was in response to a question about an "RV property tax." Good travelin !...............KirkFull-time 11+ years......
