Proposition 8: Use It Lower Your California Property Taxes

Has your property value fallen below its assessed value? If so, you're probably eligible for property tax relief. Save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in property taxes by taking advantage of California's Proposition 8. You're probably overpaying and may be eligible for a substantial rebate. Read on to find out how to claim your money...

What is Prop 8? 

In 1978 California voters passed Proposition 8, a constitutional amendment to Proposition 13 that allows a temporary reduction in assessed value when property suffers a decline in value.

A decline in value occurs when the current market value of a property drops below the current assessed value. A reduction is assessed value results in lower property taxes, thus saving the property owner often hundreds - if not thousands - of dollars each year.

Due to recent housing market conditions, virtually everyone that purchased property in California within the past few years can take advantage of Prop 8 and save money by lowering their property taxes.

Example of Possible Tax Savings 

Here's an example:
  • You purchased your home for $500,000 with annual property taxes of approx 1% = $5,000.

  • Recently, a home like yours in your own neighborhood sold for $400,000 (whereby the property taxes at 1% now = $4,000).

  • Thus your potential tax relief/savings is $1,000 per year!
Now do you see why you need to take advantage of Prop 8 and the money this underused and sometimes unknown law can save you? It is your right as a California homeowner.
