Property? Not really. Existing is an action of a thing. You might say it is the 'primary' or most fundamental action of a thing. If it isn't being (i.e. if it isn't existing) in the first place, then it isn't being any 'thing' at all.

If quarks are at the base of it all in the sense that quarks just 'are' without condition, then the demonstration is proven true, and what we have been calling god all of this time is really quarks. The 'search' for a fundamental particle is based upon the conclusion of this demonstration within the context of a universe in which only a material existence is possible.
However, since there are different sorts of quarks, that indicates that conditions exist according to which the different sorts of quarks are differentiated (called flavors). I am happy to be educated about whether or not these are actually different particles or merely different relative to a particular perspectives. But if an 'up' quark exists on the condition that a particular configuration of matter simultaneously exists, while 'down' quarks exist on the condition that a different configuration of matter (and 'more' of it) exists, then it begs the question: "What is the condition that the "up" 'configuration of matter' exists?"
Eventually, you will arrive at the question: "What is the condition that "exists" exists?" There is none... it just is. If nothing else existed, it would still be. If nothing else existed, it would still be existing.
