With property taxes being a significant factor in Texas, how do you factor them into your sales strategy?

We made a bet: be okay with no (or negative) margins on cleaning and let high quality reviews pay dividends years later.It’s paying off. 

Just in time when you might see end of year home prices taking a little dip since some sellers need to get properties off of their back to avoid paying taxes and renewing insurances again for new year. 

Quick analysis yields a 16% cap rate, just wondering if anyone has experience with logistics In running these places, paying staff, rent collection, etc.

The new investment earns $24,000 a year, but the mortgage + the equity loan cost will be $22,332—and that’s before you account for taxes, insurance, maintenance, capital expenditures, vacancies, etc.

I will be paying ALL closing costs, can the seller just give me an incentive for that $54,000 or is that in some way fraud for inflating a price? 

One of those rules required the STR platforms to remit the San Antonio HOT tax directly rather than having the operators/hosts remit and pay that.

I just wanted to chime in on the property tax discussion.  

Also, you will lose that homestead and have to pay taxes on the rental income. 

You'll always find die-hard fans who pay good money to be close to their passion.
