Common Questions About Tequesta

What is Tequesta?

Tequesta is a village in Palm Beach County, incorporated in 1957, and it is the northernmost municipality in the Miami metro area. It was planned around the Tequesta Country Club.

Is Tequesta in Palm Beach County or Martin County?

Tequesta is a Palm Beach County village, but parts of it sit on Jupiter Island in Martin County. That means the county line runs through the village, and it changes the details of a purchase.

How do schools work for a Tequesta address?

School zoning follows the county line. The Palm Beach County side is zoned for Jupiter schools, and the Martin County side is zoned for Hobe Sound schools. I confirm the assignment with the district for the specific address before you make an offer.

What is there to do near Tequesta?

Tequesta sits on the Loxahatchee River, and Coral Cove Park and the beaches of Jupiter are close by. Tell me what you like to do on the water and I will point you to the right part of the village.

Do homes in Tequesta need flood insurance?

It depends on the flood zone of the specific property, and lenders often require it in higher-risk zones. A home on the river can be very different from one farther inland. I check the flood zone and get an insurance quote before you write an offer, so there are no surprises at closing.

What should I know about the homestead exemption if I buy in Tequesta?

If Tequesta will be your permanent home, you can claim Florida’s homestead exemption, and with it the Save Our Homes cap on how fast your assessed value can rise. You need to own and live in the home by January 1 and file by March 1. Property tax millage depends on which county the home is in, and I walk every buyer through the numbers and put the homestead steps in writing right after closing.
