S-V agreement

[ashwani.mittal]

The following is an excerpt from NYTimes as-is,

Homeowners across the country are challenging their property tax bills in droves as the value of their homes drop, threatening local governments with another big drain on their budgets.

Could you pls clarify whether subject (the value) agrees with verb (drop) in number? Am I missing something here?
