Hello, I am going to purchase a house here locally to move into and get my kids into a better school district.

are you taxed less if you are single with no kids and buy a 2 story propety. one apartment for me and one for rent?

Kids will give you some breaks, but the point is that it all goes onto your personal returns.

I toyed with rehabbing it completely as a 3/1 and reselling it but after talking to people who didn't buy it because it only had 1 bathroom I am adding a bath reluctantly.No one wants a 3/1 in our market and all of the county assessor comps in the area are 3/2's.

Ever since I was a kid I wanted to make sure when I had my own home that it would be different from what anyone else might have.

I had a roof installed and mostly hung out with my kids having campfires and just a bunch of fun there.

:shock: just kidding - this is super great information - I'm going to try and study up to really understand.

The best tip is making sure the mobile home can stay in the park.

Can any one offer me some tips?
