Thinking About Downsizing? This Matters More Than Ever.

For many Seal Beach homeowners, downsizing isn’t just about lifestyle — it’s about timing, taxes, and long-term financial impact.

With Prop 19, the rules around selling, buying again, and transferring your property tax base have changed.

If you’ve owned your home for years and are considering your next move, understanding these rules could save you — and your family — thousands.

This evening is designed to give you clarity before you make any major decisions.


 

What We’ll Cover

During this guided, educational evening, you’ll gain clarity on:

  • How Prop 19 impacts your property tax base when downsizing

  • What homeowners 55+ need to know before selling and buying again

  • When and how you can transfer your existing tax base

  • What happens to your property when it’s passed on to your children

  • When reassessment is triggered — and how to avoid surprises

  • How estate planning and trusts affect your long-term strategy

No pressure.
No sales pitch.
Just clear, practical education in a relaxed setting.

FAQ Section

How does Prop 19 affect downsizing?

Prop 19 allows certain homeowners (55+, disabled, or disaster victims) to transfer their property tax base when purchasing a new home, but specific rules and timing matter. This event breaks it down clearly.


Can I really keep my low property taxes if I move?

In some cases, yes — but it depends on how and when you move. Many homeowners misunderstand these rules, which can lead to unexpected tax increases.


What happens if I pass my home to my children?

Under Prop 19, inherited property is often reassessed unless specific requirements are met. Understanding these rules is key to protecting your family’s financial future.


Is this event free?

Yes. The event is complimentary and includes two drinks. Seating is limited to maintain a comfortable, small-group setting.


Is this a sales event?

No. This is an educational event designed to help Seal Beach homeowners make informed decisions.
