Topic: Florida’s Property-Tax Debate: An Open Q&A with Matt Caldwell

Speaker: Matt Caldwell, Lee County Property Appraiser

Matt Caldwell is a 7th generation Floridian, he is married to (Yvonne), and has a daughter (Ava). He holds a Bachelor of Arts in History from FGCU and a Master of Science in Geomatics from UF. Matt served in the Florida House of Representatives from 2010-2018 and was elected to serve as Property Appraiser in 2020.

Join us for an open Q&A with Lee County Property Appraiser Matt Caldwell as we discuss Florida’s proposed expansion of the homestead exemption and what it could mean for property owners across Lee County. The conversation will explore potential savings for homesteaded homeowners, possible effects on rental and commercial properties, and whether the proposal could shift the tax burden to other taxpayers. Bring your questions and hear directly from the elected official responsible for assessing property values in Lee County.
