Real Property Transfer Tax (Measure V)
Voters approved the Real Property Transfer Tax in November 2018 (Measure V). The tax took effect November 27, 2018, so FY2019 is a partial (8-month) first year, not a data gap. FY2026 is complete (Jul 2025–Jun 2026). FY2027 is the current, in-progress fiscal year; only July 2026 is available so far.
