Increased Threshold for Small Estate Affidavit The small estate affidavit process allows heirs to claim a decedents personal property without formal probate. Previously, this applied to estates valued under $184,500. Starting April 1, 2025, this threshold increases to $208,850, adjusted for inflation.
A new California law tries to make it easier for families to inherit lower-value homes without probate. If a primary residence is valued at $750,000 or less, it can be transferred using a simplified court process. But heres the catch: The fair market value (not the equity) is what matters.
In California, the court may appoint a guardian ad litem when someone who is the subject of a case lacks the legal capacity to make decisions.
Higher Value Limit for Succession Petition: Estates can now use a Petition to Determine Succession to Real Property for homes up to $750,000avoiding full probate. More Property Exempt from Probate: Combined assets up to $934,500 may now qualify for this streamlined process ($750,000 for the home + $184,500 in cash).
