# Vanessa Wells-Rhine  Seems that objection could be addressed by...

*August 31, 2025 — Comment Archer T. Ships replied to Vanessa Wells-Rhine's comment.*

Vanessa Wells-Rhine  Seems that objection could be addressed by collecting the tax at the time of sale/transfer/death of the owner.  That way, the tax is based not on a government estimate, but on the actual market price. You may also like the idea of a Harberger tax.  With a Harberger tax, you, the homeowner, assign whatever value  you want to the house. However, the city has the right to buy the property from you at the value you assign.  Set the value too low, and the city will buy your house and resell it for a higher price.
