Yeah. I’m thinking people are losing homes AND losing their Prop 13 low taxes. Passing it to kids wouldn’t trigger the reassessment.
Sure some people remodeled their homes, added rooms and caused a reassessment, but many just paid off bills, took vacations, bought new cars/toys, even sent kids to college. Now they are out and property taxes are up. And yet City is cutting services and water mains and streets filled w/potholes continue.
