Because of situations like these, Louisiana has it written into their constitution that the state is no longer allowed to do this because of property taxes.



I do agree that there should be another means of recouping the debt aside from seizing and selling the property.

If what is owed is under X dollars, the county should be able to garnish wages or seize other assets first.

Exactly, I would ponder that 90% of property tax defaults that are under $200 are simply because of human error and not because of inability or refusal to pay. They're more than likely oversights by people not experienced with state property taxes or even due to clerical errors by government employees in charge of collections, notifications, tax assessment, ect.
