加州supplemental property tax问题
我有一个关于加州supplemental property tax问题,请教大家:
- 2021年底,A的房assessed value $30万,property tax $3千/年
- 2022年1月1日,A 卖房给B, 卖价$50万,tansaction #1
- 2022年5月1日,B卖房给C,卖价$55万,tansaction #2. Escrow 公司按照county 网站上$3千/年tax bill closed transaction #2
- 2022年5月15日,C收到county 的supplemental tax bill($1000) (从1月1日到6月30日) for transaction #1 (房屋买卖过户后,county要过将就半年才送出此次交易的supplemental tax bill)
现在的问题是:B和escrow 公司都认为房屋交易(transaction #2)已于5月1日完成,此后C收到的supplemental tax bill是C的责任,尽管从1月1日到4月30日B是房主。而C认为应该只负责5月1日到6月30日那部分。
加州的朋友,遇到过类似的情况吗?该如何解决?

"You are only responsible for Supplemental property taxes that cover the months during which you owned the property. The previous owner should have received a separate Supplemental tax bill to pay. If the tax bill covers a period during which the property was not owned by you, then it is not your responsibility to pay. The assessee or previous owner during that time period is responsible for payment of the Unsecured Supplemental property taxes."
