The numbers
Counted in October 2026 from Tracer’s Florida property data (the Florida Department of Revenue’s statewide 2025 parcel roll), with Charlotte picked as the county. Each count names the Request Data filters behind it. “Absentee” means no homestead exemption, so second homes and recent buyers who haven’t filed are in it too.
single-family homes with a Port Charlotte address on the 2025 roll, government owners left out.
35% of them have no homestead exemption: usually a rental, a second home or an inherited house.
15% of the city’s homes: the tax bill goes to an address outside Florida (second homes and rentals alike).
12% are owned by an LLC, corporation or trust. Tracer traces them to a person where it can (how).
79% of the 45,801 with a year built on the roll were built in 2011 or earlier.
