One group whose ears will perk up at this opportunity is homeowners age 55+.
If your client is a senior, retiree or older homeowner who feels trapped in a home that no longer fits their needs, you can help them move to a new home without incurring an increase in property tax.* All thanks to Prop 19.
*Purchasing a more expensive home will result in an adjusted tax increase based on the original property’s Prop 13 tax basis.
And trust us … that’s a HUGE amount of people in our lovely California.
2.2 million homeowners age 55+ haven’t moved since 1999.
3.2 million homeowners age 55+ haven’t moved since 2009.
57% of CA homeowners in 2019 qualify to save on property
taxes this year because of Prop 19.
