I feel like you are overselling a bit. Property tax needs to be very delinquent to trigger a foreclosure and a lien doesn't matter unless you sell the property.

I feel like you are overselling a bit. Property tax needs to be very delinquent to trigger a foreclosure and a lien doesn't matter unless you sell the property. Also in my experience there has been a relatively painless path to challenge the assessment. Although I have never seen an example where the $400 appraisal is worth paying to do so.

Neither of your statements make me feel better about the problem that greatly affects my life. Sure, I need to be marked as a deliquent debtor (somehow) for my property to be taken away from me. And sure, every year, I can pay the department of revenue an appraisal fee to undo the arbitrary decision to increase my tax responsibility. How about though, we force municipalities and departments of revenues to actually examine the assessment, reassessments, and economic impact? The idea that my home, the land it sits on, an the unconscious value associated with it is worth 40 percent more to other homebuyers is absolutely laughable Very shortly ,my town will have population 0 with the only commercial land being the giant paper factory owned by a chinese paper congolomerate with a stranglehold over shipping products.
