    They basically rebuilt their home and are sad it’s appraised at market value.

    That’s at least what I got from it.

        If it’s that big of a problem for their life, why not just sell the house and be multi-millionaires? It’s a non-story. Maybe they should’ve taken that into consideration.

          So, the house is now valued at 6x the original value? If they sold it at only 4-5x it would still be a huge win.

            They want the house, not the money. Now they’ll be forced to sell to some rich person. Doesn’t sound like a win to me

              Maybe it is different for me because I moved every couple years growing up. I have lived in 15 places in my life, and the most recent is a record of over a decade.

            Their taxes were grandfathered in because they bought the property at a much lower value, the house was already worth a lot more than they paid for it.
