R-3A
In essence, if you are looking at a property zoned R-3A in Riverside County, it means you can expect a residential area, likely in a mountainous resort setting, where residents may have small, home-based businesses that fit the neighborhood's tourist-friendly vibe.
"Cottage Commercial": This R-3A allows residents to run small-scale businesses from their homes, called "cottage commercial" uses, which are typically found within a one-family dwelling and are secondary to the dwelling's primary use as a residence. Think quaint shops and services that cater to both locals and visitors.

Assessed Property Value is determined by The County Assessor and is typically the cash or market value at the time of purchase.
The assessed value can increase by a maximum of 2% annually, according to Proposition 13 guidelines, until the property is sold or new construction is completed, which would trigger a reassessment.
The Riverside County Auditor-Controller applies the appropriate tax rates to the assessed value, which includes a general tax levy, locally voted special taxes, and any city or district direct assessments.
The general tax levy is capped at $1 per $100 of assessed value.
