Florida property records, county by county
Type any Florida address for a free report built from public records: the parcel and its owner of record, assessed values, the FEMA flood zone and ground elevation, the storm, surge and sinkhole history around it, and links to the county offices that keep the official records. Each county page below shows the hazards that place actually faces.
How the lookup works
- Find the parcel. We match the address to the statewide parcel roll from the Florida Department of Revenue, or you can tap any lot on the map. Condo buildings list every unit so you can pick yours.
- Build the report. Dozens of public sources are queried at once: FEMA flood maps, USGS elevation, NOAA storm tracks, the hazard index, environmental records and the county offices.
- Read it on screen. Sections fill in as they finish, each with its source and date. A PDF copy is free too.
- Check it yourself. Every section links to the official record so you can confirm it before you rely on it.

Florida rules for buyers and owners
- Florida's statewide building code took effect in March 2002, with stronger wind and opening-protection rules; homes permitted before then were built to older local codes.
- Florida insurers must offer premium discounts for proven wind-resistant features (s. 627.0711, Florida Statutes); a wind mitigation inspection documents them.
- Since October 1, 2024, Florida sellers of residential property must disclose known flood damage and flood insurance claims (s. 689.302, Florida Statutes).
- Florida homeowners policies must cover catastrophic ground cover collapse; full sinkhole coverage is offered as an option (s. 627.706, Florida Statutes).
- Standard homeowners policies don't cover flooding. National Flood Insurance Program policies usually take 30 days to start, and lenders require them for federally backed mortgages in FEMA high-risk zones.
