How could Florida’s Amendment 3 affect your community? 🏡

A new online calculator is helping Floridians explore the potential impact of proposed property tax changes.

If approved, Amendment 3 would expand homestead property tax exemptions while potentially reducing funding for local government services.

📊 The new tool allows residents to explore projected funding changes by ZIP code or county.

Important: Amendment 3 is still a proposal on Florida’s November 2026 ballot. No changes have taken effect.

FIRPTA isn’t always as simple as withholding at closing.

A foreign seller transaction can involve withholding, ITIN requirements, tax forms, and important timing considerations — and the earlier FIRPTA is identified, the easier it is to evaluate the options and coordinate the process before closing.

We created a FREE FIRPTA Guide with the key questions Realtors, Brokers, and Foreign Sellers should review before closing.

Available in English & Spanish.
Disponible en inglés y español.

This is what proactive tax planning can look like. 📊

A recent client projection showed a $33,112 lower projected tax compared with the prior year.

The takeaway? The best tax conversations happen before tax season—when there’s still time to plan, evaluate opportunities, and make informed decisions.

Your tax strategy shouldn’t start when it’s time to file:
📞 +1 (321) 248-4860

Results are specific to this client’s circumstances. Tax projections are estimates; final tax liability may vary.

Foreign seller + U.S. real estate? FIRPTA should be part of the conversation before closing day.

There’s more to the process than a withholding percentage—and understanding it early can help everyone involved in the transaction know what to expect.

In our latest YouTube video, we break down the FIRPTA process, the forms involved, ITIN considerations, withholding certificates, and one of the biggest misconceptions foreign sellers should understand.

Your business grew. Did your accounting grow with it?

There comes a point when basic bookkeeping and tax preparation are no longer enough.

As revenue increases, you need more than accurate numbers. You need to understand your cash flow, profitability, tax strategy, and financial position well enough to make better business decisions.

If you recognized your business in any of these 5 signs, it may be time to move from simply tracking the numbers to using them strategically.

At UpFront CPA, we help business owners build a financial and tax strategy designed for where their business is going — not just where it’s been.

Can less than $1,000 in unpaid HOA fees put a home at risk?

In this case, a homeowner fell behind by $977 in HOA assessments and interest. As legal and collection costs accumulated, the debt grew significantly, and the property ultimately went through foreclosure and was purchased by the HOA at auction for $8,172. 

The case is an important reminder that HOA assessments and notices should never be ignored. When payments fall behind, additional fees and legal action can escalate the situation quickly.

For homeowners and HOA boards alike, understanding financial obligations, governing documents, and applicable state laws is essential.
