Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California
My parents owned a property that was in their Trust, A & B- Type.
My dad past away on 6/26/2008 and my mother as a trustee trnsfered 50% of the property to Trust 1 (my deceased father's non revocable trust) and the other 50% to Trust 2.
Considering "Proposition: Tax Exemption From Parents to Child " will the property tax on 50% in the Trust 1, change?

Upon your mother's death, the half f the property held by Trust A and the half held by Trust B will both qualify for the Exemption for reassessment for transfer from parent to child (assuming you and your siblings, if any, are the beneficiaries.) Note that inter-sibling transfers will be re-assessed.
