Using the fancy tool known as the "internet", I was able to find what the estimated yearly taxes were last year for a house I once lived in. 20k a year. Twenty-Thousand Dollars Per Year. Glad I no longer live anywhere near that state.
That's for a medium sized 2 story in a semi-rural fringe suburban area (when I lived there, it was surrounded by farms and quaint villages. It's probably changed a lot by now, I haven't been there in years) within a decent school district. Not a mansion or a huge piece of land, just a nice, good old fashioned house.
Unbelievable that anyone would be willing to pay that.
I don't think it is a matter of being willing.
If they sell, they won't be able to find anything close by that is not even more expensive than what they sold for.
Leaving the area will only be a short reprieve, because even if you find something cheaper, it will not stay that way. It will just be a matter of time before they come for you again.
For every one person that read this post. About 7.99 billion have not.
Yet I still post.
