i believe improvement part just drops off on taxes. my tax bill listed land value and improvements on it when i had property there.
but if you build new, new improvements are assessed at market rates.
What happens to the property tax in CA if the structure is torn down and the land sits vacant? Does the tax go down because there is no improvements anymore or does it go up because the demolition would trigger a reassesment and the land alone is way more than what it was 40-50 years ago?

Good point, but those kids three states away will buy homes in that area, plus other kids in your area who have parents 3 states away will buy in your area. Also consider printing press inflation that may leave housing as one of the few hedges left.
You mean the kids that live 3 states away?

They're not building them, so not sure what they'd downsize to. The values can't go down in most locations. You have a bigger generation with buying power regardless of interest rates and an aging demo that doesn't want to move OR still has the kids living with them.
I'm a geezer millennial. All my closest friends own their homes. 90%. Most of their parents, Boomers have already downsized. Many in my circle are wealthy and their parents just keep their family home. No one is selling. With low interest rates locked in, it's cheaper to keep the house and get hired help for the Boomers.
If you have a daughter that's lost with no career ambition, have them get in the home healthcare business. Boomers aren't moving. They'll stay home. They're stubborn as fuck. That's something people overlook. Between commissions, cost of moving, hassle Boomers simply aren't moving into assisted living and probably won't. Maybe in 10-15 years once they approach 80-90, but it's not happening any time soon. Just wait for the reverse mortgage wave. That's coming in a big way.
If you are long SFH or are considering downsizing, do it right now before it's too late.

The problem is that the HOA fees may be very expensive making it not economically better to live in a condo or townhome.
Even if the HOA board and the management company are not corrupt, it may not be competent as far as gaining the best value for the community.
I rather live in a gated community with very little HOA fees. I would rather have a single detached home that I would maintain in a gated community and HOA.

I'll be blunt. Does it matter? Older people are stubborn. You and I will be stubborn when we get old. Once you hit 60 you know your time is limited and you say fuck it. You don't care what other people think. You don't want to have a adult sitter for yourself. You think you can still do it and just don't care anymore.
I wouldn't fight the battle. Unless worried about having to manage the home yourself and they don't have the money. Otherwise it's not difficult to make phone calls and have people manage the snow and lawn and other issues that come up. The alternative of pushing someone to live in a place they don't want to is likely worse. My 2¢.

Couldn't do it. Have done it. I can't live with other people that aren't my kids or wife. Stupid shit is picked up on. I've done it with my parents and my wife's parents for literally 3 months a piece and couldn't stand it during the housing crash. Everything is hyper analyzed about your lifestyle. How you raise kids. The food you make. How you treat your spouse. You have roomates that are more judgmental than a college roomate. The list goes on.
I get the idea, but it doesn't work if you want to be happy. Asians can do it all they want, but realistically, if they're being honest, they're not happy. You need your own home. I'll even go further and say it has to be a detached home that you don't share walls with anyone, HOA and all the bull shit that comes with that if you go the condo route. Maybe a family compound with separate structures on acreage, but you cannot and should not live within the same walls as family 100%. It's toxic. Anyone that says it isn't is lying and someone you shouldn't trust moving forward.

My kid acts up I'm going to chew his ass out without Grandma trying to intervene. Don't do this anymore, but have 6 beers and yell at the TV during a sports event, get over it. Then you have to deal with their shit. It's 100% toxic.
You lose all freedom when you live with other people regardless of it being parents or siblings. It's tough enough with a spouse and kids. I ain't adding my parents or anyone else into the mix. People need freedom. That's also why cities suck ass. You're surrounded by fucking morons.

Home prices are getting slashed as inventory climbs and high mortgage rates push sellers to compete for buyers, Zillow says
Home prices are getting slashed at an unusual pace, thanks to a recent surge in inventory and still-high mortgage rates pushing sellers to compete for buyers, according to Zillow economists.
The share of listings on the market that saw a price cut in November was 22.6%, down slightly from October's 25% rate but still abnormally high for this time of year, the real estate listings site said in its monthly housing market update on Monday.
"Price cuts are more common than normal – chances are good that prices are negotiable," Zillow said.
The trend likely reflects sellers trying to attract buyers, who had largely been shut out of the housing market as mortgage rates soared.

The price cuts are on shit houses likely owned by losers that didn't maintain them. The housing inventory is shit. It's no surprise people are cutting prices. Anyone that bought in the past 15 years at this point is locked into a low interest rate. McMansions are no longer a trend and they aren't building new houses anyway. The stuff for sale is shit where I've looked and that's multiple states and territories.
Zillow is in the business of getting listing leads for people to sell houses. And also buy houses based on their leads. I can't think of a more biased, bull shit source. Anecdotal data matters. The housing bust hype won't materialize. It's click bait. Rates will drop and prices will go sideways in almost all markets. We're not in a boom or bust cycle. I think it will be 5 years before it moves one way or another substantially in the macro. Micro like SF, LA, NYC maybe ATL I could see losses.

Put the money in Fidelity or one of the banks and collect 4.5-5% yield/interest while you’re looking for the opportunity. That’s what I would do. I would say more opportunities will likely arise sometime next year. If not, I would wait for the next recession. Don’t rush if there’s no good deal.

Depends on demographics in California such as number of qualified white collar and skilled blue collar versus the supply of homes.
Are Hollywood and Silicon Valley employment rolls increasing and are they compensating a lot to sustain the trends in California home prices ?
Another factor is if foreign buyers with cash are still interested in buying a home in California.

Looking at a 23,000 square foot mansion in Chattanooga that took 7 years to build for $40 million. Now selling for $16 million. With 'furnishings collected from around the world' $19 million.
I am thinking that highly leveraged ritzies are now under increased financial stress thanks to the interest rates spiking. Either personally or their businesses or both. So, fire sale city!
