Florida may not tax your incomeābut it doesĀ taxĀ your signatures.
Every deed, note, and mortgage filed in the Sunshine State carries a hidden price tag in the form of documentary stamp tax.

This breakdown covers who pays what, when, and why it matters, including the real-world examples every Florida closer should have bookmarked.
