Lets be real with a full-time job, family and kids, I can only rely on TK, similar to many people I engage and network with, the goal is to be able to utilize this resource to your advantage, build wealth using proven and existing systems.

@Wayne BrooksIn Texas and if I remember correctly when I bought pro in Nevada, title companies have the buyer and seller sign a "Tax Proration Agreement " which basically says that the title company is estimating the amount of the prorated taxes and the title company relied on a third party for the information and if the probation turn out to be inaccurate ((usually do to changed tax rates or appraised value) the buyer and seller agree to solve it amongst themselves.
