Pretty frustrated and really need help ASAP - would love if someone new what I'm doing wrong or if something is wrong with the site.  

Husband and wife agents with luxury brand, own a construction business, licensed General Contractor, retired army officer, successful spec projects in 2004(money was easy then).

This post is not to explain the NAR 'changes' as to highlight transactional effects and considerations NO ONE has mentioned:Prior to the new rules (that effectively forbid the disclosure of buyer's broker's fees) one could readily assume that the listed sales price included compensation for both parties.

Your portion will be deducted from your proceeds.To your question, however - if somehow you managed to avoid paying the taxes and closed without the taxes accounted for, then the new owner would have to pay all of them or would have a tax lien placed against the property.

I normally don't do carpeting in my rentals, but the new one I have doesn't lend itself to any other flooring.

Therefore, you may be assigned a new person from year to year.Best of luck. 

@Ben Freed I would recommend reposting this in the Upstate New York forum.

.- Higher Cash Flow Potential:Certain markets might provide better rental income, leading to increased cash flow.Cons:- Limited Local Knowledge:Understanding the nuances of a new market is challenging without on-the-ground experience.- Property Management:Managing properties remotely often requires hiring a property manager, adding to your costs.- Increased Travel and Communication:Regular visits and long-distance coordination can increase both time and expense.- Legal and Tax Complications:Navigating different state laws and tax regulations can be complex and confusing.Out-of-state investing can be a great way to grow your real estate portfolio, but weighing the benefits against the potential challenges is essential.

In my opinion, it’s a great location—centrally located between New York and Florida.

It might also limit the creation of new housing if developers and investors are less incentivized to sell and reinvest.
