Property Taxes

Property Taxes on Sanibel and Captiva and Lee County are collected by the Lee County government.

They are paid in arrears and are assessed in October and due at the end of March of the subsequent year. You can get a discount if you pay in advance.

The millage rate last year for Sanibel property owners was 0.0186017. This includes Lee County and City of Sanibel taxes.

Residents who live full time in Florida can take advantage of the Save our Homes amendment passed in Florida some years ago. This puts a cap on the increase in assessed value each year.
