@Josh Mitchell from what we know about NY state, it's one of the most tenant-friendly states in the country.

He is licensed in all states and is very real estate investor friendly.

See https://library.municode.com/tx/killeen/codes/code_of_ordinancesChapter 26 is known as "City of Killeen Subdivision and Property Development Regulations."

It's obvious that more data is needed to truly compare different cities accross the US.

Understand any obligations, rules, or peculiarities that might affect your management style or investment strategy.Condition of the Property: Ensure you know the current state of the property.

I've also done some high level analysis of Nashville TN, Tampa FL, and the state of Georgia.

I have a property in Indy and in different states.

As I've been learning, there are the key taxes to understand when investing into a new area or state:- State business income tax (if you have an LLC)- State personal income tax (if they want to tax you too, even as an out-of-state investor)- City personal or business income taxes- Any registration fees due the city/state- City/state property taxesAnd I'm sure more!

Its super high, based on my assessments this year, its very difficult to get a  positive cash flow property in most cases (some states may have it).

We reached out to the city and followed all their advice, but unfortunately, things didn't improve.
