                            Walter and Debbie Priebe thought they were doing the right thing.

Debbie, who had worked for a real estate attorney for nearly 25 years, anticipated that their property taxes might increase. But when the final tax bill arrived in 2023 after construction was complete, their taxes had skyrocketed from $15,000 a year to more than $90,000—six times their previous bill.
