Collier County, Florida

Collier County absentee owners, counted.

Collier County has 111,107 single-family homes on Florida’s 2025 tax roll. 38,821 of them (35%) have no homestead exemption, which usually means the owner lives somewhere else, and 17,734 owners get the tax bill outside Florida. Here’s how to turn them into a call list.

The numbers

What’s on the Collier County roll.

Counted in September 2026 from Tracer’s Florida property data, which is the Florida Department of Revenue’s statewide 2025 parcel roll. Each card names the Request Data filters behind it, so you can check the number yourself before you buy anything. One pull tops out at 200,000 records, so a bigger total shows as 200,000 there.

111,107

single-family homes on the 2025 roll, government owners left out.

Rank in Florida

#17

of 67 counties for absentee-owned homes. Here 35% have no homestead exemption; statewide it’s 29%.

“Absentee” means no homestead exemption. Snowbirds, second homes and owners who bought recently and haven’t filed yet look the same on paper, so stack a second filter before you call.

Single-family + Companies. The owner is a company; Tracer finds the person behind it. How that works.
Cost

What a Collier County list costs.

Pulling records costs 0.5¢ each. All 17,734 out-of-state single-family owners would be $89 to pull; skip tracing them then uses records from a pack ($99 for 10,000). You see the count and the price before you pay, and you can narrow by city, ZIP, value or year built first.

Reach the owner

Trace the mailing address, not the house.

An absentee owner’s property address is where the tenant lives. Tracer reads the owner’s mailing address first and checks the carrier’s name on each number against the owner, so you call the person who can sell. New to this? Start with how to skip trace or the absentee owner guide.

Real numbers

One investor’s week: 94% came back with a phone.

A real estate investor customer traced 17,859 records in one week of September 2026, and 16,759 came back with a phone number. The numbers come from the weekly report Tracer emailed them; we don’t publish customer names. Your list will differ, so test it first: get 100 free records, no card.
