    I don’t think property taxes have anything to do with who you are married to or what your nationality is.. its all about the amount of land your house is on and how much the county wants to tax that parcel of land.

    Property tax assessment is based on the value of the home at the time of purchased and adjusted every year. The rate is established by the State and voted by Californians. That’s why we have one of the lowest property tax rate in the country. Your citizenship or residency status has no bearing on the tax rate. Anyone includes a person from outside of the USA can buy properties in the USA. Good luck. Wait another six months to buy in California. We have not seen bottom yet.
