For residents
- Water billing: if your park submeters water, Florida bills it at the cost of service with the combined service charge capped at 9% (§367.022(9)) — there's no markup on the water itself. Check the math free with the water submeter calculator, or read the Florida water-billing guide.
- Paying rent: ask the park office how they take payment. Parks that run on Lot Sidekick hand residents clear, itemized rent and water bills.

How much can lot rent go up at Desoto Place?

Park value estimate
The county roll carries no assessed value for this park, so here's a comparison instead. Across 30 assessed parks in Sarasota County the median works out to $70,000 per space. At 8 spaces that puts a comparable assessment somewhere around $562,000 — call it $362,000 to $676,000, which is the middle half of the county's range.
These are county assessments for tax purposes, not a market appraisal and not an asking price. A park's real value turns on its rent roll, its expenses and its utilities — none of which are in a public record.
