Under Article XIII, Section I of the California Constitution, all property is taxable unless it is exempt. Each year Personal Property is reassessed as of lien date, January 1st. Personal Property is all property except real estate and can include business equipment, vessels, aircraft, vehicles and manufactured homes.
You can't deduct capital losses on the sale of personal use property. A personal use asset that is sold at a loss generally isn't reported on your tax return unless it was reported to you on a 1099-K and you can't get a corrected version from the issuer of the form.
Real property is land and anything attached to it, while personal property refers to movable items. For example, a house on a plot of land is real property, while the furniture inside is personal property.
If you sold a personal use asset for more than what you bought it for, then you would generally report that on the Stock or Investment Sale Information screen. You can report any selling expenses by reducing the amount you enter as "Sale Proceeds" by the amount of your selling expenses.

Property that is owned and occupied as your principal place of residence as of the lien date (January 1st) may qualify for an exemption of $7,000 of assessed value. Contact the Assessor for details about the exemption.
