California's Proposition 19 gives older homeowners a property tax break. But processing delays in L.A. County have left property owners facing hefty tax bills.
The $15,584 she owes on her new West Hills home was almost four times as much as the taxes on her previous house in Granada Hills where she had lived for more than 30 years.
California homeowners get to pass low property taxes to their kids. It’s proved highly profitable to an elite group “My mom didn’t have to do this,” said Gershon, 36. “She sold her house and put off her retirement to make sure her grandkids didn’t have to worry about having a roof over their heads.” L.A. County Assessor Jeffrey Prang said his office needed at least a year to update its technology to implement the tax measure after it was passed, but the law gave assessors only several months to do so., so the assessor’s office helped draft legislation to clarify the law, he said. That legislation was passed and signed by the governor last fall. Without clear guidance on how to administer Proposition 19 for most of last year, applications piled up, he said.
