Que Es Supplemental Taxes?
Los impuestos suplementarios son un ajuste único de impuestos sobre la propiedad que ocurre cuando se vende una casa en California. Cubren la diferencia entre el valor tasado del dueño anterior y el nuevo precio de compra, prorrateado por el resto del año fiscal.
Datos Clave
- You'll receive one or two supplemental tax bills within 6-12 months of buying.
- These are separate from your regular property tax bill.
- They're based on the difference between old and new assessed values.
- Supplemental taxes are NOT included in your monthly escrow — they come as a separate bill.
Ejemplo Practico
The previous owner's assessed value was $400,000. You bought for $650,000. The supplemental tax covers the $250,000 difference at the local tax rate, prorated for the months remaining in the fiscal year. Expect a bill of $1,500 to $2,500.
Por Que Importa
Supplemental taxes catch many first-time buyers off guard because they arrive months after closing as a separate bill. Budget for them so you're not surprised. Your lender or agent should give you an estimate at closing.
