I am just getting started, but willing to learn as much as possible.

@Daniel LangRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Hi,We recently (Aug 2024) bought commercial land of around 2 acres. this was part of bigger commercial lot (around 25 acres) which had AG exemption and so the taxes that they paid was around $20 each year. we received a 'AG ROLLBACK' letter from the appraisal district that starting 2025 tax year, we will be taxed at it market value resulting in additional taxes, interest and possible penalities for 3 prior years.

You might consider: Consulting a Real Estate Attorney – Your emails may possibly prove misrepresentation.Requesting Public Records – A FOIA request might reveal why the city denied you but later approved the duplex.Escalating to City Officials – Bringing this to local officials could expose inconsistencies.Exploring Tax Write-Offs – A CPA might help offset your financial loss, if it is possible.I’d definitely seek legal advice.

Ask for a rate sheet with par rate pricing if possible. 

Best bet is to try local and credit unions, possibly may have some programs for better rates.

The possibilities are endless really. 

When you have a real state license you have access to MlS and  that gives you the opportunity to see possible deals before those who don't have access.

Whether it's through sustainable practices, adaptive reuse, or innovative space planning, the possibilities are endless. 

@Keegan Wetzel I just relocated to the San Diego area as well, and would like to connect with your CPA, could you possibly send me his information?
