David Smith States with no income tax
14 April 2019 | 27 replies
0.79% on an$800k property is still a higher tax than 1.86% on an equivalent property in Texas because that place might only cost $300k, so not sure that property taxes in CA are really lower.
Wes Blackwell How Universal Basic Income Could Change Real Estate Investing
29 January 2020 | 197 replies
Same thing with the coming Gen X getting ready to retire.More likely, the system will be altered to keep it afloat and kick the can down the road to future generations, by changing the benefit formulas, raising the payroll tax, or makes other changes such as raising the cap on taxable wage income.BIGGER PROBLEMS AHEADBut combine this with Artificial Intelligence Experts predicting as much as 45% of all jobs could be replaced by automation by 2035, and we've got a serious problem on our hands.Serious changes are ahead, and the government only has so much "bread and circuses" (UBI being the bread) before seriously addressing the issues at hand.For now, UBI is presented as Social Security 2.0, but instead of just the retired population too old for most work it's going to affect everyone because soon there will be very little work at all.And with humans projected to live 3-8 years longer than previously expected by 2050, and even with just the current US adult population of 250 million over 18 (UBI recipients under Andrew's plan), that's an additional $3 trillion per year UBI would cost us BEYOND the additional $3.2 to $8.3 trillion we hadn't planned to spend with our erroneous calculations.Further, with an annual inflation of 3%, the buying power of a dollar today will equivalent to $2.50 in 2050, begging the question if $1,000/mo will even be enough by then?

Mike Rutallie Please poke holes in this Lease option strategy
10 February 2024 | 4 replies
Allow me to put the money I'd pay for the property into gov't bonds paying roughly what the lease payment would cost, and 3. would give them ~$320K in total lease payments including the offset of capital gains, while it would be equivalent to me purchasing it for cash today at $225K.I know there is an income tax liability on the seller's part for the lease payments, but I don't know their situation to judge the impact of that.I've never done a transaction like this before, so please poke holes in it, or if you have a better option, please let me know.
