&gt; This punishes newcomers and rewards staying in the same property, just like California Prop 13. Have a kid and need a new place with more space? Prepare to pay punishing property taxes for that luxury. You grew up in the area and it&#x27;s time to move out? Enjoy your tax! Moving from the countryside for better employment opportunities? Tax please!<p>Can you explain why this would be a moving tax?<p>Obvious, property taxes only apply to the fraction of the year that you own a place. Are you worried about the overlapping period where you have the house on the market but haven&#x27;t sold it yet?<p>I suppose that would be an issue, but I assume for most people, that&#x27;s a relatively small fraction of time. It&#x27;s not like there aren&#x27;t already lots of other expenses associated with moving.
