My property value was reduced under Proposition 8. Now the Assessment has increased. Why?
Proposition 8 provides that your taxable value does not exceed the current market value of the property. Once a value is temporarily reduced under Proposition 8, it is reviewed annually and adjusted, according to the market value. Once the market value exceeds the adjusted base value, it will be restored.
