加利福尼亚选民可能很快决定对地方房地产转让税的限制,影响到住房筹资。 California voters may soon decide on limits to local real estate transfer taxes, affecting housing funding.

加利福尼亚州在房地产税问题上面临2026年的关键投票战, 由洛杉矶的ULA措施引发, 该措施对豪华住房销售征收高额转账费, California faces a pivotal 2026 ballot battle over real estate taxes, sparked by Los Angeles’ Measure ULA, which levies high transfer fees on luxury home sales to fund housing for the unhoused. 霍华德·贾维斯纳税人协会正在收集全州范围措施的签名,该措施将转移税限制在0.05%以下,并需要三分之二的多数才能通过地方的、特定目的的税收,从而将这一税额从简单多数中提升出来。 The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association is collecting signatures for a statewide measure that would cap transfer taxes at under 0.05% and require a two-thirds majority to pass local, purpose-specific taxes—raising the bar from a simple majority. 这一变化可能削减依赖此类税收的城市,包括洛杉矶的数十亿收入,而洛杉矶的ULA措施已经创造了数亿。 The change could cut billions in revenue for cities relying on such taxes, including Los Angeles, where Measure ULA has already generated hundreds of millions. 尽管立法努力将新住房和被野火破坏的房屋免征税,但由于情况复杂而未能这样做,但反税收运动仍在继续,威胁着地方为住房和服务提供资金。 Though a legislative effort to exempt new housing and wildfire-damaged homes from the tax failed due to complexity, the anti-tax campaign continues, threatening local funding for housing and services.
