Update on Zuckerberg's $100M donation to improve the Newark school system

<p>re Prop 13…I think older folks can do a one-time move and still get a lower tax. this is to help move empty-nesters out of big family homes.</p>

<p>I’ll see if I can find the details. My parents never used it because they wanted to keep their big family home …and their prop 13 taxes were about 600 a year. But, I do know older folks who did use that option.</p>

<p>sounds good, but really, many retirees cant afford 5k per year in prop taxes. most retired couples have incomes of less than 50k…they cant be spending 10% or more of their limited dollars on property taxes. (and $10k-20k in property taxes is INSANE unless you are very affluent and living in a mini-mansion)</p>
