The effective property tax rate in California is .76%.
The effective property tax rate in New Jersey is 2.47%.
That’s nice.
But you add up the highest income tax in the nation, the highest sales taxes in the nation, and moderate property tax and you get the #10 highest tax state in the country.
So your point is?
Calif property taxes are based upon purchase price.
IIRC-—Currently about 1.25% of sale price.
SOOOOO—$1 million property gets tax bill of around $12,500
