Your neighbors that are improving their historic homes are taking advantage of the 10 year Ad Valorum Tax Deferral. This is an incentive that is administered through our City Historic Preservation Department to restore and improve historic structures. Any value added to your property will be tax deferred for 10 years. For more information contact Jodi Rubin, Preservation Officer, City of Orlando at 407.246.3350 or jodi.rubin@cityoforlando.net. The savings could be considerable! Also ask her about the low interest fa?§ade loan.
