## Resource

This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - How Proposition 13 establishes a base-year value and limits annual property tax increases to 1% of assessed value and a 2% maximum annual adjustment. - The function of a supplemental tax bill, which is issued following a sale to cover the difference between the old and new assessed values mid-year. - The difference between the general tax levy and special assessments like Mello-Roos, which are not subject to Prop 13's 1% limit. - The key portability benefits of Proposition 19, allowing homeowners over 55 to transfer their tax base to a new primary residence anywhere in California. - How the Homeowner's Exemption reduces the assessed value by $7,000 for an owner-occupied principal residence.
