    Vance Wealth financial planner Tyler Tilton completed his Certified Exit Planning adviser (CEPA®) credential, joining a specialized class of finance professionals who are trained to guide business owners toward a successful exit.  

    “We are very proud of Tyler for continuing to deepen his knowledge and improve his skills for the sake of our clients,” said John Vance, president and visionary. “His expertise and training adds value to our entire firm, as we collaborate to provide the best service possible. His achievement is an excellent example of one of our firm’s core values: a commitment to continuous growth.”  

    The CEPA® credential, accredited through the Exit Planning Institute, teaches advisers how to integrate a business owner’s business, personal and financial goals into a master plan. Exit Planning Institute President, Scott Snider, shares, "A significant company is one that is ready, attractive, valuable, and transferrable at any given time. The company is near best-in-class performance while having employees, vendors, and partners that enjoy working there and are part of a culture." 

    “This methodology provides a sturdy framework for executing exit strategies as a holistic adviser,” Tilton explained. “Exit planning is about more than just creating a plan that you print out and put in a desk drawer; it’s a proactive strategy rooted in execution that grows value by expanding the owner’s options, so they can transition their business on their own terms.” 

    The CEPA® credential has only been achieved by roughly 4,000 professionals in the United States. In addition to this special designation, Tilton is a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) and Chartered Retirement Plans Specialist (CRPS®). The combination of his professional experience and continuing education give Tilton a depth of knowledge that’s specifically suited to prepare business owners for success from startup to sale.  

    “I’m looking forward to helping business owners build value into their companies — whether that’s to maintain it, sell it or just build a better business,” Tilton said.  

    Raised among entrepreneurs and Wall Street executives, Tilton understands the leadership, management and financial sides of a business owner’s journey, and he guides clients through every stage of growth. In addition to serving his own client base as a wealth adviser, Tilton also oversees Simplify365®, a division of Vance Wealth developed with the business owner’s busy life in mind.  

    Tyler Tilton serves Santa Clarita, Pasadena and Newport Beach. To see how Tyler can help you or your business, please call 661-775-0950 to schedule a complimentary consultation, or visit VanceWealth.com.

    Assessor Releases Annual Report for 2023

    Data Reflects Continued Growth; $24 Billion for Public Services

    LOS ANGELES, CA -  Los Angeles County Assessor Jeff Prang released the 2023 Annual Report, providing a comprehensive overview of the Assessor's Office activities, achievements, and key initiatives throughout the past operating year.

    The Annual Report serves as a valuable resource for the public, offering insights into the County's property assessment process, tax revenue distribution, and the overall economic landscape and reflects growth and increases in the assessed value of taxable real property for the 13th consecutive year. The report also includes an updated listing of the County’s 88 cities, including the highest valued cities and those with the highest percentage change from the previous year. 

    To access the full 2023 Annual Report, interested parties are encouraged to visit the official website of the Los Angeles County Assessor at: https://assessor.lacounty.gov/reports.

    “The 2023 Annual Report provides the public with easily accessible information about the Office of the Assessor, including how property values in each area of the County changed during this last year,” said Assessor Jeff Prang. “The diligent work of our staff saw us find new ways to produce and complete our vital functions that ultimately serves as the foundation of the property tax system which will generate about $24 billion in revenue for vital public services.”

    The 2023 Annual Report is broken down into categories and chapters, providing a comprehensive view and analysis of the Los Angeles County real estate market. It reveals that every city in Los Angeles County recorded an increase in assessed valuation compared to 2022. Key highlights from the 2023 Annual Report include:

    1. Record Growth: The Report highlights the total net value of $1.997 trillion for the entire County, indicating the 13th consecutive year of growth, as mentioned, and an increase of more than $111 billion (or 5.91%) over 2022 which generates $24 billion in property tax revenue annually.
    2. Office Initiatives: The Report includes the many legislative advancements, the tax resources and tax savings’ programs available, a detailed explanation of California’s property tax system, and the ongoing joint-venture with community colleges that provides a pathway to County jobs.
    3. 2023 Assessment Roll Data: The Report lists the top 20 highest valued cities in the County for 2023. The top five highest valued cities are the City of Los Angeles at No. 1 with an assessed valuation of $819.6 billion (5.9% increase); Long Beach with an assessed valuation of $74.8 billion (6.8% increase); Santa Monica with an assessed valuation of $48.9 billion (5.3% increase); Beverly Hills with an assessed value of $44.9 billion (5.3%); and Santa Clarita with an assessed valuation of $44.8 billion (8.5% increase).

    Assessor Prang also reminds residents the growth does not mean property owners will be subject to a corresponding increase on their annual property tax bills. Most property owners will only see a modest 2 percent adjustment prescribed by Proposition 13.

    The dedicated professionals at the Assessor’s Office are committed to providing the highest-quality of public service possible, regardless of the challenges that present themselves. In fact, the Annual Report will point out that in order to create the 2023 Assessment Roll, the hardworking and dedicated staff of the Assessor’s Office processed 319,000 deeds, assessed 122,000 transfers, enrolled over 40,000 new construction events, reviewed approximately 21,000 decline-in-value parcels, and prepared over 32,000 Assessment Appeals Board cases. In the last year, Assessor business personal property staff canvassed over 386,000 business locations and processed over 127,000 property statements.

    Santa Clarita Non-Profits Invited to Apply for 2024-25 Funding Cycle

     

    The City of Santa Clarita (City) is pleased to announce the release of the 2024-25 Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) and has scheduled informational meetings for organizations interested in applying for 2024-25 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding. The City invites non-profit organizations that serve low and moderate-income residents to attend an informational meeting to learn more about the program and to receive a funding application for the 2024-25 program year.

    Each year, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides the City with CDBG funding, which is primarily intended to benefit low- and moderate-income residents. The City awards a portion of this allocation through grants to eligible non-profit organizations to provide services and resources for some of the City’s most vulnerable residents. Individuals and for-profit organizations are not eligible to apply.

    The City requires interested applicants to attend one of two scheduled Zoom informational meetings to learn more about applying for and how to receive funding. Following the meeting, the City will provide interested applicants with a funding application. Meetings are scheduled as follows:

    • Wednesday, November 29, 2023, from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m.
    • Thursday, November 30, 2023, from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m.

    For more information, including the Zoom meeting link, passcode and where to RSVP, please visit the City’s website at SantaClarita.gov/Housing.

    Every five years, the City develops a CDBG strategic planning document called the Consolidated Plan (Con Plan). The Con Plan sets priorities for how CDBG funds will be used. In addition, each year the City conducts a community needs assessment and develops a CDBG Annual Action Plan (AAP). The AAP outlines how the annual allocation of CDBG funds are spent and establishes goals for the number of individuals served.

    This NOFA allows community-based organizations the opportunity to apply for funds to serve low and moderate-income residents as part of the AAP during the Program Year of July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025. All proposals must address a Con Plan Priority and meet a variety of other cross-cutting federal regulations, including compliance with reporting and record-keeping requirements. Only residents of the City of Santa Clarita may be served by any CDBG funding awarded.

    For more information about the City of Santa Clarita’s CDBG program or the funding application process, please contact Project Technician Donya Plazo by email at  dplazo@santa-clarita.com or by phone at (661) 255-4368.
