Where is ZIP code 33559 in Lutz?
33559 covers east Lutz, east of the original US-41 corridor and along the Hillsborough–Pasco county line toward Wesley Chapel and New Tampa. It is primarily in Hillsborough County, with some portions in Pasco County. Neighborhoods include Oak Grove, Carpenter's Run, Lake Forest, Tampa Downs Heights, Deer Park, and the gated Sanctuary on Livingston and Cordoba Ranch.
What are property taxes in Lutz 33559?
Most of this ZIP code is in unincorporated Hillsborough County, where the 2025 final millage totals 18.2515 mills (about $18.25 per $1,000 of taxable value) according to the Hillsborough County Property Appraiser. Your actual bill depends on your taxable value after exemptions, plus any non-ad valorem assessments such as a CDD. Homes on the Pasco side of the county line are taxed under Pasco County rates instead, so always confirm the county on the parcel record.
Do seniors get a property tax break in Hillsborough County?
Yes. Unincorporated Hillsborough County offers an additional senior exemption of up to $50,000 for homeowners 65 and older who already have a homestead exemption and whose household income is at or below the state limit ($38,686 for 2026), plus a long-term-resident version for qualifying homes under $250,000 in just value owned for 25 years. First-time applications are due March 1. Separately, Florida voters will decide Amendment 3 on November 3, 2026, which would raise non-school homestead exemptions starting in 2027 if approved by 60% of voters.
Does Lutz 33559 have CDD fees?
It depends on the subdivision: several established 33559 neighborhoods have no CDD, while some newer communities carry CDD assessments in addition to HOA dues. Where a CDD exists, it is billed as a non-ad valorem assessment on the county tax bill. Michael E. Siebel verifies CDD and HOA costs on the parcel's tax record before you write or accept an offer.
Is Lutz 33559 in a flood zone?
Redfin, using First Street's model, estimates about 5% of properties in 33559 face severe flood risk over the next 30 years, which is lower than several neighboring ZIP codes. Individual lots near lakes and wetlands can still be in a FEMA flood zone, so check the exact address on Hillsborough County's flood zone lookup or FEMA's map. Since October 1, 2025, Florida sellers must also give buyers a flood disclosure (section 689.302, Florida Statutes) covering known flood damage, flood insurance claims, and flood-related assistance.
How do I sell my parent's house in Lutz after they move to assisted living?
Start by confirming who has legal authority to sign — your parent, a durable power of attorney, a trustee, or a personal representative if the estate is in probate. Then decide whether to sell as-is or make light repairs, and plan the timing so the house is not sitting vacant longer than necessary. Michael E. Siebel coordinates these steps with families and their attorneys and can walk through the house with you before anything is decided. If the home is part of an estate, the probate court and your attorney set the steps and timeline.
