You bring up a valid point about the property taxes. My SIL tells me that houses go on the market for 1 million and then the bidding war begins and they usually go for maybe $1.4. For those of you not familiar with Los Angeles these are not what you think of as "million dollar" type houses. So their property tax would be based on the $1.4. What happens if the house declines 30% from the 1 million, you still have to pay tax on the $1.4.
