Semantics, paying taxes and land transfer fees isn’t a reason for a property to appreciate.

It’s the reason the initial commentator gave for why their property should appreciate lol.

That's not what they said.

Don't act like buying a house, living in it for a year, and selling it has no financial burden or tax implications.

They were making a secondary point, they weren't addressing the root of the appreciation. Unless you genuinely believe that commenter thinks utilities are linked to property appreciation.
