They should be made progressive depending on house value, but lowered on rental properties below a certain market-rent level.  In other words we should use high property taxes on homes, especially higher end homes, to subsidize a tax subsidy for low-rent housing.

For example, the tax on a high end home - say $250K or more, should be doubled, but the tax on an apartment complex with $500/month apartments, or a trailer park, should be halved.
