GENERAL INFORMATION
California law provides that under certain conditions a person maytransferthebaseyearvalueofhisorherproperty to a
comparable replacement property if that original property has been taken by eminent domain proceedings, acquisition by a public
entity, or governmental action resulting in a judgment of inverse condemnation.
To be considered comparable, a replacement property acquired by a person displaced under one of the three con ditions above
must be similar in size, utility, and function to the taken property. Replacement property is similar in size if its full cash value
doesnotexceed120percentoftheawardorpurchasepricepaidforthepropertytaken.Replacementpropertyissimilarin
utility and function if it is, or is intended to be, used in the same manner as the property taken. Property is similar in utility and
function if the property taken and the replacement property fall into the same category: Category A - single family and duplex;
Category B - commercial, investment, income, or vacant property; Category C - agricultural property. If replacement property is
notsimilarinsize,function,andutility,theexcessportionisconsideredtohaveundergoneachangeinownershipandwillbe
subject to reappraisal.
Thebaseyearvalueofthereplacementpropertywillbedeterminedbycomparingtheawardorpurchasepricepaidforthetaken
propertywiththefullcashvalueofthereplacementproperty:
• Ifthisvaluedoesnot exceed120percentoftheawardorpurchasepricepaidforthetakenproperty,then
the adjusted base year value of the taken property becomes the replacement property’s base year value.
Ifthefullcashvalueofthereplacementpropertyexceeds the 120 percent level, the amount of full cash value
inexcessof120percentwillbeaddedtothebaseyearvalueofthetakenproperty.Thissumbecomesthe
base year value of the replacement property.
• Ifthefullcashvalueofthereplacementpropertyisless than the base year value of the property taken, that
lowervaluebecomesthebaseyearvalueofthereplacementproperty.
• Ifthereisnoawardorpricepaidforthepropertytaken(i.e.,anexchange),theAssessormustdetermine
the full cash value of both the property taken and the replacement property.
Onlytheowner(s)ofthepropertytakenmayreceivethispropertytaxrelief.Ownermeansthefeeownerorlifeestateownerof
