It’s a local thing but typically you pay property taxes based on the local taxing authority’s determination of Market Value....not based on sales price, particularly between family members at a reduced price.

It's such a fun journey (stressful, but rewarding).

Companies can reduce their federal payroll taxes, specifically the employers portion of Social Security taxes.What Businesses Qualify for R&D Tax Credits?

This is the most stressful and fun partof the process.

I'll be able to house hack and reduce my living expenses significantly, allowing me to save up more for my next deal.

However, if you are content with a small portfolio where you will still have decent cash flow, have a much "safer" investment, and generally have less stress, cash is your best friend.3.

@Andy Collins I would ask them to fix it or get money back to cover closing costs and reduce the price to fix it yourself.

Should I purchase a multi-family, I could either find a live-in property manager for reduced rent or utilities only or turn tenants over until I find solid, reliable tenants who take care of the property.

The thought of tenants moving in the day after one leaves stresses me out but that may change if this was my full time job or I had a team supporting me.  

Now I’m wondering if I should refinance my old primary in California to make it less cash flow positive and reduce my mortgage at my new place.
