In the USA, can you lose your home even after it is 100% paid off? (lemmy.ml)

Let’s say that you buy a home in cash and have 100% paid off. Could you still lose it somehow?

1% is a pretty normal amount for an urban area, but it's usually a combination of county and city. If the state of Texas has a 1% tax on top of county and city taxes, that'd be pretty high.

No, that's county, city, and school district
