Sacramento County Assessor Releases 2025 Property Assessment Roll Totals

Assessment Roll Hits Record $256.9 Billion – A 5.41% Increase Over Last Year


​Sacramento County Assessor Christina Wynn announced today that the 2025-26 property assessment roll has reached a record high of nearly $256.9 billion, reflecting a 5.41% increase over the prior year. After deductions for property tax exemptions benefiting homeowners, disabled veterans, and charitable organizations, the net assessed value stands at just over $244 billion.

“This year’s growth is fueled by steady home prices and ongoing development across the County,” said Wynn. “Our team continues to deliver timely and accurate assessments while supporting property owners and local governments.”

The assessment roll includes al​l locally assessed real estate, business, and personal property as of January 1, 2025. It is the foundation for determining property taxes in Sacramento County. The increased values are projected to generate approximately $2.4 billion in property tax revenue, an increase of $123 million from last year. These funds support more than 175 local government agencies, including schools, cities, fire and park districts, and are a critical source of discretionary r​evenue for the County’s General Fund.​

How Proposition 13 Affects Your Assessment

Although the overall roll increased 5.41%, most property owners will see only a 2% increase due to Proposition 13’s value cap. Additional roll growth came from properties that changed ownership or underwent new construction in 2024. Other properties—such as mobile homes, boats, business equipment, and properties with temporary value reductions (Prop 8)—are reassessed annually and may fluctuate more than 2%.

Proposition 13 – Why Your Assessed Value Isn’t Always What Your Home is Worth

California's Proposition 13 caps the growth of a property's assessed value at no more than 2 percent a year unless the market value of a property falls lower. When that happens, Proposition 8, which also passed in 1978, allows the property to be temporarily reassessed at the lower value. However, as the value of the property rises, the assessed value and resulting property taxes may increase more than 2 percent a year up to the annually adjusted Prop. 13 cap.
