Property tax formula for Montgomery, Alabama.
Montgomery county tax estimate formula is: appraised value x 20% (without homestead) x .0365!

Good point. I have definetaly lost a lot on a few deals. Basically my stupidity, not the deal. Be sure to have a plan B in place.
And, be careful who you get advice from. Most folks will give you advice that benefits them, not you. "Great deal here, lots of equity, I just don't have time to do it myself, so I am passing it on to you"....... I have heard that a few times.

Get a sample lease management agreement.
Ask about maintenance upcharges, what amount does not need owner approval? ($400)
How often do they inspect?
Response time to your questions.....if they take 2 days to respond to you, they probably take 2 days to respond to a tenant.

Understood. The article I got the info from was considering the entire metro area, not just the city.
