It will ofset the income on your taxes.

- if we are all only shareholders of a cooperative, why is each unit's proprietary lease recorded with the county and each unit owner/shareholder pays property taxes for their own respective unit?  

We invested in Florida, were looking into Austin but we did some other researchs and the taxes are really on the high end in Texas !

So I am trying to run numbers on a few larger apt. buildings and the expenses the owners have given me are obviously inflated for tax benefits.

So I'm looking for some advice as I begin this process- should I drop the agent and pursue the tax address I found first?
