Gross value is not net equity
The threshold analysis uses the applicable gross-value rules. A mortgage generally cannot simply be subtracted to make a property qualify.
Primary residence and date rules matter
The procedure is limited to qualifying California primary-residence property and the current threshold depends on the governing death and valuation rules.
A court petition is still involved
Potential eligibility does not transfer title by itself. Required petitions, appraisals, notices, supporting facts, and court orders must be handled correctly.
Frequently asked questions
Is every inherited home under $750,000 eligible?
No. Property type, use as the decedent's primary residence, date, gross value, waiting period, successors, notices, and other statutory requirements must be verified.
