When an rental real estate property is sold, does the depreciation recapture means that all depreciation taken on prior tax returns as depreciation deductions are taxed at a flat 25% rate?

On your federal return depreciation reduces your basis. Real estate is depreciated on a straight line basis. It may however work differently for CA state taxes. You would have to consult a local professional on that.
