Celebrity Property Tax Assessment: Clyde McPhatter

Doing property tax appeals is so much fun. You never know what'll come across your desk. Yesterday I was looking at comparable sales identified by the County Property Appraiser and researched by my assistant Tiffany. The property in question was a purchase by none other than Clyde McPhatter, Jr.

If you're as young as Tiffany, this name may not mean anything to you. The buyer's father was Clyde McPhatter, one of the greatest R & B singers of the 1950s and '60s. McPhatter founded The Drifters and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame posthumously in 1987. He was even honored on a U.S. postage stamp in 1993.


Anyway, Clyde McPhatter's son and namesake recently purchased two residential properties in Miami-Dade County, Florida. He purchased the two properties July and August of 2006, respectively, paying a total $4.8 million.

Hey, Mr. McPhatter, why don't you have a homestead exemption on either of these two properties? If you need help determining your eligibility for the significant benefits of homestead proprety tax exemption in Florida, contact me!

What follows is what you can find out online about the two properties:
