The UK has council taxes (poll taxes) instead of property taxes paid by landowners. Landowners benefit from the increase in values; renters don't.

Your council tax system basically seems batshit crazy to people from anywhere else. I am guessing that there's some serious history behind how the UK arrived at this point.
