After heated competition, PropTax Madness has come to a conclusion, at least our virtual tournament. We started with a field of 16 teams competing for the coveted “most maddening thing about property taxes”. We now have a champion. Sorry, we can’t bring the reality of these maddening issues to an actual conclusion. Without them, what fun would we have! But I digress.
You have spoken, the votes have been counted, and the winner of 2013 PropTax Madness is…faxing! It makes sense – why would you easily send an email with your attachment when you could just rewind back to 1995 and fax the document instead? Why do tax jurisdictions insist on keeping the faxing business alive?
Thanks for playing along, everyone! What do you think about the winning team? To catch up on the PropTax Madness tournament, check out our previous posts.

Another round of PropTax Madness is complete! The original field of 16 teams competing for the coveted “most maddening thing about property taxes” has been narrowed down to just four teams. To catch up on the games so far, check out our previous posts here.
Similar to the March Madness games, we have a 1 seed competing against a 4 seed; Wisconsin M-P vs. Bill Back. Which team will go on to the final game?
Who will win the PropTax Madness tournament? I believe that the crowd may be the surprising factor in this final round. We’d love to hear who you think will win the “most maddening thing about property taxes”.
