Like Texas, Florida 

You get bigger returns when analyzing two deals with same cap rate with one in FL the other in NY? 

Right?

I lived in Ca for 30 years-13% state income tax-moved to Wa in 2017 0% state income tax. I could have bought a nice house in Wa with the capital gains tax I paid in Ca. Fortunately some were in a 1031x that I rolled into Wa properties with no tax! 

In Ca if you held properties for a long time your property taxes became low compared to property values due to appreciation. 

I thought my happiest day was when I moved to Ca-wrong; second happiest. Happiest was when I left in 2017. It was a wonderful place to live and raise a family, but also a great place to leave! LOL
