PRACTICE AREAS

About Claude's
Renters Tax

At a time when rent and housing costs are skyrocketing out of control in California, rogue tax accessors like Orange County’s Claude Parrish are leading the charge to impose a Renters Tax on workforce housing and tenants.

 

Local elected officials across California launched an initiative to increase workforce housing and lower the cost of rent for first responders, teachers, families, and others who can barely afford to live in the communities they serve.  These programs result in millions of dollars of savings for tenants across California.

​

Now, Orange County Tax Assessor Claude Parrish is threatening to undermine efforts to make housing more affordable by imposing a surprise Renters Tax on unsuspecting tenants based on an obscure legal theory known as a possessory interest.  Claude’s attack on workforce housing must be stopped.

OUR VISION

The Impact

If Orange County Tax Assessor Claude Parrish imposes a Renters Tax, impacted tenants could have their rent increase anywhere from $4,000 to $7,000 per year. Whether Claude taxes tenants directly, or landlords or developers, the burden will inevitably flow to the cost of rent and make housing less affordable than it already is for California families and workers.
