Could be different in some place, but generally property tax do not take into account if you live in the house or not, or have it has a principal residency or not, the owner pay the tax.A lot, and I mean a lot of players, don't live in the city they play in. Players avoid making their place of residency the city they play for,
If that is true that would mean that people bitching about would be 100% right, I am not sure if it is really all taken into account, there also some ego and comp of the raw numbers of similar player that signed recently that could be going on.These kind of situations are super common in the contracts people bitch about (Star contracts). Cost of Living, Property Tax, Sales Tax, education, climates, etc are all taken into account for contracts.
And obviously that would be what the players would want to do, but their agents have little to gain about any of that and them it is all about the biggest raw numbers (they could even spread the idea that it does not really matter at the end financially where you play, always take the biggest contract), they will not leave there and take a cut on the gross income not the net income of the player.
