Question: I've been thinking about investing in local real estate lately, and there's an unusual (to me) practice here of funding some of the city provided infrastructure (water, roads and lighting I guess) by a special property tax for 20 years. I'm curious what, if anything, happens to property value as that date approaches. 

Naively, I'd expect a bump in prices the day the tax expires, as buyers try to avoid the extra payments. I have a feeling though that the intuitive, theoretical and experimental answers will all be different. So **is there a good way to think about predicting the effects of tax expiration and confirm expected results in real life**?

Answer: 
ATM surcharges exist based on the preference of the ATM owner, not the country where it sits. I believe that any country *could* have these ATMs if the owner so desired.

In France, that depends on whether the ATM is owned by a French bank.
