That's so stupid. I've never met a real estate concern that had ANY employees. The fact that a building is owned by 1 guy who outsources everything does not make it a "small business".
- sokoloff 7y agoHow do you define small business such that it excludes a one-person renting a house/apartment operation?
- projektfu 7y agoWhy should it? What’s special about that case?
- sokoloff 7y agoI don’t know; I think it is a small business. Ask @jumpingmice.

- sokoloff 7y agoMost landlords are taking in (far) less than a $30MM in gross receipts per year though, right? (That’s the SBA cutoff for “small business” in property renting; NAIC business codes 5311x0.) https://www.sba.gov/sites/default/files/2019-08/SBA%20Table%20of%20Size%20Standards_Effective%20Aug%2019,%202019.pdf https://www.sba.gov/sites/default/files/2019-08/SBA%20Table%...
- yonran 7y agoAll residential property is already exempt from the split roll initiative (unfortunately), so residential landlords don’t need to claim the small business exemption. As for nonresidential property, if the split roll initiative passes, every single commercial landowner will want to classify themselves as a small business to get the exemption from reappraisal (unfortunately), so I imagine that this will be fairly contentious. As the initiative is written, a small business must (1) occupy the property, (3)(A) employ <50 employees, (B) be managed independently, and (C) own some real estate in California (but not necessarily the property in question?!)
