BG – you do live in an older neighborhood, as I gather from your posts, I think down in Chula Vista area?
Now think about San Diego county in general. Then think about all of California.
Do you realize how much new construction we’ve had in the past 10 years? People that purchased w/in the past 10 years are not paying low property taxes.
I think those people far outweigh many of the few people who are paying low property taxes.
Now let’s address some of the heirs of these old properties. If they are smart, they will keep them. But so many of them have homes of their homes they purchased w/their own families. Brothers and sisters are likely to sell the outdated home of the parents so they can split the proceeds and use the money for their own struggling payments. So many people are not working or have less hours or cut pay.
I don’t have kids of my own and I still think we should not take away Prop 13. Do that and your taxes will be going up. Don’t like the amount you’re paying now. Stand by to stand by for it to be way higher.
