Lee County Florida is the Place To Be.

Lee County Florida is the place to be.

  Southwest Florida market itself

Lee county presently is a mid-size county that is growing fast and attracting more industry to the area. Recently Hertz Corporation has moved their Corporate headquarters here from New Jersey. It is Corporate headquarters of Chico's Fashion. Other companies are beginning to take note of Southwest Florida and the great potential the location and weather offers along with the low corporate taxes, growing education facilities, and educated workforce.

The population is growing at a fast pace. More talent is moving to the area. There still a lot of building to do. Florida is now the  third largest state in the nation, passing New York.  And Lee county is the 6th largest county with Cape Coral being the largest city within the county.

Estero or Bonita Spring are looking to built a new high school in the area as new communities are being built or old one are expanding. 




Demand for IT professionals are great and in need. The medical industry is healthy. Right now, retail, construction and tourism is the biggest source of employment. 

The county cost of living is lower than the national average.  

The weather is idea. Fishing among the best in the world.

There is no State income tax. The sale tax varies by county, presently Lee is at 6%.

Property taxes is based on the assessed value of the property on January first of each year, minus any of many exemptions that is offered.

Properties taxes also can not increase more than 3%. The exemptions and tax caps are part of Florida Constitution, all help in keeping taxes low now and into the future.
