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.

I believe that connecting with experienced investors and fellow newcomers will be invaluable as I navigate this path.I am particularly interested in short term rentals, multi-family rentals, and possibly fix and flips. 

This clearly has nothing to do with laws, regulations or operating numbers but I do think it plays a large role in the decline of the market.

You don't want to overstretch on the first one.In terms of evaluating quality deals, you won't know what those are for a while so you want to get as many reps looking at properties as possible.
