Quote from @Briley Roe: My cpa explained that I should only be getting taxed a capital gains, not ordinary income tax.

The Chiefs & Royals stadium saga, potentially relocating across state lines, could shift economic activity and boost local infrastructure.

Most of us underestimate property taxes (I did too).

The good ones notice right away and feel safer.Community touchpoints: Simple BBQs, pizza nights, or coffee mornings help residents connect and shift the culture fast.Reputation boost: Ask your good tenants for updated reviews—offer small gift cards as a thank you.

Generally speaking if you do anything the OTA's are pushing you will get a boost in visibility and therefore bookings. 

When the property is sold, the depreciation recapture rules will apply, reducing your tax basis and potentially increasing your taxable gain.This sounds like it is straight out of chat gpt and does not answer my question. 🤣  Completely agree

Let me know if I can help you with looking for what fits youTotally agree, buy & hold makes more sense in those stronger areas.We’re planning to mix both strategies: hold a few rentals and do some flips to boost cash flow.If you don’t mind sharing, I’d love to hear which neighborhoods you think are better for flips vs. rentals. 

Hey Tiffany,Condos typically prefer 10-20% minimum down payments so that same $25-50K could put you in a position to househack in Westchester.To qualify for a higher amount, I'd recommend asking your loan officer for any debt-paydown advice that can boost your Debt-to-income ratio. 

But my kids are really into Tax Sales ~ but the best deals they get are using the tax sale list to contact owners . . . offering to clear / pay tax debt and give owner some $ for house ( so they can afford to move out. )This must all be done BEFORE the auction  If owner does nothing, and house sells at tax auction, then they get nothing ~ loose the house and the sheriff evicts them  This is all not easy ~ and the success rate is probably less than 1% . . . but they've got some amazing deals. 

It’s just not how the tax world works.
