Couple things I wish someone told me when I rented out my primary in Katy:- your taxes will go up dramatically over time - cash flow is inconsistent- while Katy is a fantastic rental market it's still competitiveTo answer your questions: - yes, the homestead exemption will increase your taxes at a faster rate but you can protest them either yourself (I don't recommend as I've tried and it was a pain) or with a professional service- To start, you're either going to pay for books, classes, etc. or pay the school of hard knocks.

It's a really pain to say the least! 

I could be wrong there, but regardless I know developer pain when hands are tied.

There are 'daily dials' that are hosted by some of the group leaders and you practice cold calling under different scenarios (seller who has no pain, seller wants too much down, seller says they're too old to do owner finance/refi, etc).There are daily Zooms on a variety of topics as wells just Q & A where Pace will answer any questions you have on anything you might be working on, etc.

This is painfully true.

If you need a referral to a good PA in NY, shoot me a message and I'll send you a couple.

Pain is the best educator, and too many confuse a bull market with brains.

I was living in Los Angeles, CA, so I feel your pain.
