Well that sounds extremely unfair. I like my house, and I want to live in it. I don't want to sell it at any price. But now I have to pay higher taxes than my mobile neighbor, who sets a low price and simply moves after delaying things for a few months with his uncle who's a real estate lawyer. Now I have to set a higher price than the market in order to stay here, and pay double taxes, even though I'm more valuable to the neighborhood as a long-time landowner.
