Why do property owners with Section 8 housing get exempt?

Indiana is great for primary home owners with low property taxes but as an investor, you lose the homestead (homeowner), mortgage and supplemental exemptions.

Murphy's exemption"...google it.

By taking a thoughtful and strategic approach to real estate investing, you can minimize risks and maximize returns.TAX BREAKThe tax break may come in several forms, such as a reduction in property tax rates, tax credits, or exemptions on certain types of property.REGULAR INCOMEThe consistent amount of money that is generated from owning and renting out a property.INFLATION PROTECTIONThe ability of real estate assets to retain their value or appreciate in value over time, even in the face of inflation.DIVERSIFICATIONA strategy that involves investing in different types of properties across different locations.

Murphy" exception exempts you from Fair Housing in most states. 

So, starting in 2015, employees started filing CIVIL LAWSUITS for not getting 10-minue uninterrupted breaks every 4 hours (actually every 2 hours, but I don't know why the laws says 4 hours), for not getting a 1-hour uninterrupted lunch break, for being mis-classified as an Exempt employee (independent contractor) when you report to the IRS, for not getting proper Wage Earning Statements, for not getting paid overtime, for age and race discrimination and the list goes on.Here is the worst part.

I believe if you have four units or less, you are also exempt from Fair Housing requirements.

Actually, if it is a personal residence that he has lived in for 2 of the last 5 years, he has a $250,000 exemption if single and a $500,000 exemption if married, if he sold today, while still living.

First there is a tax exemption if a property is your primary home or homestead for 2 of the last 5 years when you sell it.

@Amy Wan very good comments.As to what Cody was saying: There are many other factors that come into play for a note being a security or exempt as a mortgage, the lender and their relationship, how many loans are made, the use of funds.....just because real estate is the (or part of the) collateral doesn't mean a loan to a business can't be a security.
