In the next few weeks, the Office of the Assessor-Recorder will transition to a new main office phone number, 628-652-8100. For the 12 months following this transition, constituents who call the Office’s prior phone number will automatically be transferred to our new line. As part of this transition, the Office is instituting key upgrades to improve the experience that San Franciscans have when calling us. To learn more, click here.

This fact sheet includes helpful information about property tax programs that benefit seniors.  Specifically, it provides detailed information about Proposition 60 (transfer of base year value), how to qualify, and examples that can help figure out if you are eligible.

NOTE: In November 2020, California voters passed Proposition 19, which makes changes to property tax benefits for seniors (effective April 1, 2021). Please visit the Proposition 19 resource page for more information.
