Hi all,

Kurt did a great virtual tour of our Watersound house which is available for rent:

http://www.emeraldcoasttours.com/165gulfbridgelane

also VRBO.COM #125219

We're a little new to this stuff, could anyone help me out with taxes? State of Florida is 7%, but I notice everyone charges 11%, so I'm assuming Walton County charges 4%. Is this correct, and if so, how do I go about paying it?

Thanks

Your assumption is correct. If you have a management company handling collection of rent for you, then they will pay the taxes. Otherwise you will have to file separately with the state and with Walton County. ShallowsNole is the expert you should be seeking on this matter. :D I'd also be happy to give you an owner's perspective. PM me if interested.

Off to check out the tour!!

You have a beautiful beach home, you shouldn't have any problems keeping it rented.

:roll: Wow, what a gorgeous house. Right in the middle of everything. I'm paying my taxes right now. Here's the site, www.touristtax.com/walton. The county I pay quarterly, the state I pay monthly. They give you until the 20th each month, before its late. The county filing should be simpler since they'll calculate it online once you enter the numbers. :blink:
