You get a reverse mortgage, use the equity to pay the taxes now and in the future. When it runs out you sell and the mortgage holder gets the proceeds. You are “homeless in Seattle” but not to fear, you admit to being “D.B. Cooper” — in prison you get free room and board, free medical and dental, freedom from paying taxes, freedom from loneliness and freedom from worrying about the future! If you get tired of living in Walla Walla, you sue the state for false imprisonment and use the millions of taxpayer money to buy your own house back in Sammamish and live happily ever after.
