As Paul will confirm, there are also tax strategies available in Iowa to help lower commercial property taxes. It is being phased out over seven more years but I've found that if you found a seller who is unaware of the roll back in taxes or that they can put structure in place to reduce commercial rate on multi-family to residential rates that you can buy a property and generate instant appreciated value based on the lower operating expense and higher sales value.

I think the Quad City (Davenport, Bettendorf, Rock Island, Moline) market is a great place for an investor to find some good deals.
