You'll get some comfort from looking at a graph of historical top tax levels - https://bradfordtaxinstitute.com/Free_Resources/Federal-Income-Tax-Rates.aspxAside from obvious extreme hikes  for WWs 1 and 2 and Korea and Vietnam (seeing a pattern here) and paying for the New Deal in the Great depression - Tax rates haven't changed that much since the tax code went into effect in the early 1900s.Since 1980 ish it's been relatively unchanged around an axis through 3 democratic and 4 republican administrations. 

Moreover when you look at state and city regulations, taxes, land lording laws and the over all (not picking sides but blue states are statistically speaking harder to operate in) democratic areas which means that the tax burden on the investor will only increase over time. 

And on the rare occasion that I find an MLS property worth looking at, we get to work together a bit.So, until the real estate boards democratizes access to their sales data, the best way to access that info is to develop a good relationship with a realtor.

The tenant groups like the Democratic Socialists and Tenant Union groups are trying to come after your retirement and investments!

I agree that it’s going to add another headache, but I don’t feel these actions are actually going to achieve the goals the city is looking for in regards to more affordable housing for the intended democratic.

Without trying to get into political matters, this jolt could easily come in 2020 if democrats win the election. 

We fought hard against this new sweeping restriction of landlord rights but our democratic dominated state legilslature was not willing to listen.

I supposed its possible they would discount it but, it's also possible the Republican's and Democrats will stop behaving like children.If you buy at the junior's sale, i'd be prepared to pay off the senior.

I personally would not invest in democrats controlled states, in that case the landlord rights is low or none.

According to my source, all republicans (11) and 10 democrats indicated they will vote "No" if it reaches the full senate, please call them (see link below) to reinforce their No vote.https://myemail.constantcontact.com/RED-ALERT---AB-1482-Rent-Cap-in-Senate-Appropriations-Committee.html?
