Or even better, which Texas already does, is just defer taxes until the home is sold.

If your house has gone from $200,000 to 700,000, having to pay $150k in deferred property taxes doesn’t seem over onerous.

Hm interesting, do they charge interest on the accumulated amount?

I believe they do, but it’s a pretty modest interest rate.
