The IL property tax is a pain. 

By paying a commission and taxes, you get more money from the property by doing a Refi. 

I looked into this as well since I'm getting terribly bent over on my w-2 taxes. 

I am an agent and while you are partially correct - the majority of life insurance policies are structured for leaving the death benefit to the insured's beneficiaries.However, when a client asks for an 'infinite banking' policy, they are asking for a vehicle to accumulate cash that has tax advantages, moderate growth, liquidity and no exposure to market volatility.

I don't foresee Texas implementing a similar law, but I'd be interested to know how this change has affected others.Side note: It's not the Section 8 tenants that I'm avoiding, it's the government bureaucracy that comes with it.I believe the majority of the US population lives in states with the same law.How do we navigate it in those states?

However, i would like a person with multiple rentals to help guide me to avoid some simple mistakes.

If you need financial help, ask under the "Finance, Tax, and Legal" forum.

I or a partner have done at least two of his boot-camps over the years, including his land & commercial property which helped us buy our first three land joint ventures-with-the-sellers a few years ago – never has there been subsequent illegal charges, but I do read thoroughly the agreements and immediately notate in my day-timer the required termination date for any company’s teaser or rebate.Again, I empathize with those who had bad experiences with any company’s or guru’s teasers, but I’d suggest rather than avoiding teasers and rebates, take advantage of them!

You may be able to deduct mortgage interest and property taxes before the property is in service. 

I assume they collect a proration every month for property tax?
