The homeowners have two options, and both options suck.

  • sell
  • don't sell

Both alternatives carry costs. But they own a home worth 4.4mil and have to pay 2% of that each year. That's pretty low.

Renters have two options:

  • get fucked
  • move (and get fucked)

At least if the homeowner sells they get the windfall.
