I am against property taxes in all forms.
The argument as to whether or not renters pay property tax, is a matter of the landlord. If the landlord is paying property tax out of pocket, he made some poor business decisions at some point and he is paying the price. The “I want to be a landlord so I can get rich” fad has unduly inflated the prices of many such “rental” friendly properties. If I have to pay to get people to live in my rental properties, I would be better off buying CDs at PNC.
