 If you could make a one time payment of 25x your last year’s property tax to forever exempt your home from property tax, would you do it?

 It depends.  
 What would it depend on in your decision making? 
 Yes when a can i? 
 Ha, I wish it was an option. 
 I'd consider it, but it isn't a slam dunk at my age. 
 I would guess it would be associated with the land itself so would be good for heirs or whoever you sell it to (ie increase the property value) 
 I would be tempted, but what would stop them from changing their mind or deciding they were going to put a highway in 
 Definitely not in cash before the bitcoin bull makes its run.

Maybe, if I can take a 10+ year fiat denominated loan for it.

Also, depends on the size of the property size. If it's worth too much, they will tax it harder than a small apartment, so there's more to gain (if you trust the other party on the deal)
