The Levy County Property Appraiser’s website and related services are provided as a public resource to offer residents, property owners, and professionals access to property records, maps, assessments, and other official information. While the office strives to ensure that all data, tools, and content are accurate, current, and reliable, the information is provided “as is” and may contain errors, omissions, or delays due to recording, processing, or technical factors. Users are advised that the website content is intended for informational and reference purposes only and should not be solely relied upon for legal, financial, or professional decisions. For certified or official records, users must contact the Levy County Property Appraiser’s Office directly or obtain documentation from the Clerk of Court.

Informational Use Only
The LCPA’s website, online tools, and published data are provided primarily for informational and reference purposes. While the office works diligently to maintain accurate and up-to-date property records, tax information, maps, and related content, users should understand that this information is not a substitute for certified or official documents.
Key points regarding informational use:
- Reference Purposes: Users may access property details, GIS maps, tax estimators, exemption forms, and other resources to research, plan, or verify information related to their property or properties of interest.
- No Legal Authority: Data obtained from the website does not establish legal ownership, appraisal values, or exemption status. Official documentation must be requested from the Property Appraiser’s Office or the Levy County Clerk of Court.
- Professional Verification Recommended: Individuals making financial, legal, or business decisions based on property information should verify the details independently through certified records or consult qualified professionals.
- Dynamic Data: Property values, ownership records, tax rates, and exemptions are subject to periodic updates. Users are responsible for confirming that the information they reference reflects the most current and official records.
By using the website, users acknowledge that all data and tools are intended solely for informational purposes and agree to verify critical information through proper channels before taking any action based on it.
No Legal, Financial, or Professional Advice
The information, tools, and resources available on the Levy County Property Appraiser’s website are not intended to constitute legal, financial, tax, or professional advice. While the office strives to provide accurate and timely property data, users should understand the following:
- No Substitute for Professional Guidance: Property assessments, exemption applications, tax calculations, and related information provided online are for reference only. Users should consult qualified professionals, such as attorneys, certified appraisers, accountants, or tax advisors, before making decisions that have legal, financial, or contractual implications.
- Independent Verification Required: Property ownership, valuations, and exemption eligibility must be verified through official records or certified documentation. Relying solely on website information may lead to errors or unintended consequences.
- Limitations on Online Tools: Tools such as the Tax Estimator, Property Search, and GIS Mapping are designed to provide approximate information and guidance, but they do not guarantee exact results. Users should treat results as guidelines, not official determinations.
- No Liability for Decisions: The Levy County Property Appraiser’s Office is not responsible for any actions, financial losses, or legal disputes that arise from relying on online data without seeking proper professional advice or confirmation.
By using the website, users acknowledge that any property-related decisions are made at their own discretion and risk, and that the Property Appraiser’s Office does not provide personalized professional advice through online tools or content.

Property ownership, assessed values, exemption status, and tax information are updated regularly, but there may be delays due to processing, recording, or administrative factors. Users should be aware that information available online may not reflect the most current or final official records.
GIS Maps and Visual Tools
GIS mapping tools are provided to assist users in visualizing property boundaries, parcel layouts, zoning classifications, and other spatial data. These tools are intended for general reference only.
