Last week the Hartford Courant had an article about the cop in Kansas that
got a new house. A year later, it is still "as seen on TV" but he is
appealing the $4000 property tax bill. These people end up with no
mortgage, but plenty of tax and utility costs.


As if there is some comparison.


... as opposed to the person who *does* have a mortgage. Plus plenty of
tax and utility costs.

Just because taxes may be rolled into a mortgage payment through an
escrow account doesn't mean the homeowner is not paying taxes. (I'm sure
that wasn't your point, it's just amazing how many people actually have
that viewpoint).
