I’m curious about if and how property tax increases will happen.

You can justify a rent increase.3.

We typically do a minimum 3% increase, then we hold larger increases for turnovers or every 3-4 years.

But the insane tax increases in Jackson County, Missouri (Kansas City) were deemed illegal:"Missouri’s State Tax Commission ordered Jackson County to roll back its 2023 property tax assessments, which raised homeowners property assessments by an average of 30% and more than 100% in some cases.

Aligning increases with tax hikes is key.

I have them conditionally formatted so the dates turn increasing red as we approach the date in the cell. 

I am particularly eye-balling the Atlanta or Orlando markets for my first investment.My long-term goal is to build a stable portfolio that will give me the ability to draw on the equity in 10+ years (sooner if possible) to pivot into mixed-use or larger commercial deals longer term.I want to make sure that my first investment serves as a foundational learning and investment pillar, with a focus on modest cashflow and increase in appreciation over a 10 year horizon.

Rents should increase soon and maybe you will not feed the beast much more.

It is no secret that acquiring prime, productive and licensed STRs in most areas is getting more challenging due to increasing regulations and that over the next two years demand will continue to increase due to tax incentives and market dynamics.
