Deadline and where to file
Hampton values are set by the local property appraiser. File your VAB petition on or before the 25th day after the property appraiser mails the TRIM notice. TRIM notices go out in mid-August in most counties. Exemption, classification, and deferral disputes get 30 days.
Reading this in fall 2026? The 2026 window has closed: TRIM notices went out in mid-August and the 25-day petition deadline fell in September. A late petition is only accepted if the board finds good cause (extraordinary circumstances) before a hearing is scheduled. Your next realistic chance is 2027: values are set as of January 1, 2027, TRIM notices arrive around August 2027, and you then have 25 days from the mailing date printed on your notice. You can ask the property appraiser for an informal conference at any point, which does not replace the petition.
The Bradford County guide covers the full Florida petition process: forms, fees, hearing levels and what happens next.
Building a Hampton case
Averages explain why a case might work. The decision turns on evidence about one property. In a smaller or rural market, sales can be sparse. Explain why each sale you use still compares with your home.
- Evidence the appraiser asked you for in writing but you withheld cannot be used at the hearing.
