Podcasts about property taxes

On today's show we're examining a form of apartment distress that can hide in plain sight. One of our team members recently visited , a 500-unit apartment complex in Pflugerville, Texas, just north of Austin.It is relatively new. Construction began in 2021 and the completed project was turned over in May of 2023. This isn't a tired 1970s apartment complex suffering from decades of deferred maintenance.Let's follow the property through the tax records.In 2021, while the project was getting underway, the assessed value was about $5.3 million.In 2022, it increased to $6.8 million.By 2023, with construction well underway, the assessment had reached $34.8 million.Then the project was completed.The following year, the assessed value jumped to $114.4 million.Think about that.In a single year, the taxable value increased by nearly $80 million.The resulting 2024 property tax bill was approximately $2.53 million.For 2025, the assessment was reduced to $105 million and the tax bill fell to roughly $2.36 million.Austin experienced extraordinary population and rent growth during the pandemic years. Interest rates were low, cap rates were compressed and developers responded to the demand by building thousands of new apartments.Eventually that new supply arrived.Rents softened. Concessions increased. Occupancy became more competitive. At the same time, interest rates increased and multifamily cap rates expanded.Today, It is advertising one-bedroom apartments starting around $1,100 per month. More importantly, the property has been advertising concessions of up to ten weeks free.Ten weeks free on a twelve-month lease is nearly a 19% concession.So we have two very different things happening at the same property.The tax records say the property was worth $114 million in 2024 and $105 million in 2025.The rental market is simultaneously forcing ownership to compete for residents using lower rents and substantial concessions.That raises a simple question.If you were buying It today using today's rents, today's concessions, today's expenses and today's cap rates, would the income support a $105 million valuation?--------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

As Ohioans cast their ballots for who will become the next governor, the final result will make history, no matter who wins. If it's Republican Vivek Ramaswamy, he'll become Ohio's first Indian American and billionaire governor, as well as the first Hindu governor in the United States. If Democrat Dr. Amy Acton gets the most votes, she'll become the first elected woman and Jewish governor of Ohio. And if Libertarian Don Kissick upsets the two major party candidates, he'll become the first Libertarian governor of Ohio. "Sound of Ideas" host Stephanie Haney talked with each of the candidates in one-on-one prerecorded interviews lasting roughly 20 minutes each, and we're sharing those conversations with you today. The questions came from research on the candidates, as well as conversations we had this summer with voters at libraries across Northeast Ohio as part of our Listen, Engage, Vote initiative. We also asked for input from "Sound of Ideas" audience members on social media. First, we'll hear from Republican Vivek Ramaswamy, then Democrat Dr. Amy Acton, and then Libertarian Don Kissick. Guests: -Vivek Ramaswamy, Republican Candidate for Ohio Governor -Amy Acton, M.D., Democratic Candidate for Ohio Governor -Don Kissick, Libertarian Candidate for Ohio Governor

Canadian Property Taxes: What Real Estate Investors Are Missing Property taxes might not be the most exciting part of real estate investing, but they can completely change the performance of a rental property. In today's episode of the Canadian Real Estate Investing Morning Show, Wayne and Gabby compare residential property taxes across 20 major Canadian cities and show just how dramatically the numbers can change from one market to another. Using the same $500,000 assessed property value in every market allows for an apples-to-apples comparison. The difference between the lowest and highest cities in the comparison works out to thousands of dollars per year and hundreds of dollars every month. For a real estate investor, that's cash flow. How Property Taxes Actually Work Property taxes aren't structured exactly the same way across Canada. Depending on the province and municipality, your bill can include municipal taxes, provincial education taxes, regional authorities, transit, fire protection, waste collection, school taxes and other local levies. The terminology and assessment systems can also differ between provinces. The important lesson for investors is that looking at a property's purchase price isn't enough. You need to understand the actual assessed value, applicable tax rates and any additional charges specific to that municipality. Why Assessed Value Matters Property taxes are generally calculated using the municipality's assessed value of the property, which isn't necessarily the same as the purchase price or current market value. That distinction becomes especially important when buying a recently renovated property, adding a legal secondary suite, building a garage or completing another improvement that could increase the assessed value. If the municipality hasn't yet incorporated those improvements into the assessment, the existing tax bill may not accurately represent what you'll eventually pay. Vancouver Has the Lowest Rate in the Comparison One of the biggest surprises in today's episode is Vancouver. Using the rates discussed on the show, Vancouver had the lowest combined percentage among the 20 cities compared. On the standardized $500,000 assessed property used throughout the episode, the approximate annual property tax was $1,682, or about $140 per month. Surrey, Kelowna and Victoria were also near the low end of the comparison. Wayne discusses an important reason why percentage rates alone can be misleading. Markets with very high property values can use lower percentage rates while still generating substantial tax revenue because those percentages are being applied against much larger assessed values. Edmonton vs. Calgary Property Taxes The Edmonton-Calgary comparison was particularly interesting. Using the same $500,000 assessed property: Calgary: approximately $3,325/year Edmonton: approximately $5,182/year Difference: approximately $1,857/year That's roughly $155 per month in additional expenses for the Edmonton example. But Wayne stresses that this doesn't automatically make Calgary a better real estate investment. Purchase price, achievable rent, insurance, utilities, cash flow, tenant profile and other operating expenses all have to be considered together. A lower property-tax rate can't compensate for an investment that doesn't otherwise produce the returns you're looking for. Windsor Had the Highest Rate in the Comparison At the other end of the list was Windsor. Using the figures discussed during the episode, a $500,000 assessed property produced an estimated annual property-tax bill of approximately $10,483, or about $873 per month. Compare that with approximately $1,682 annually in Vancouver. That's a difference of roughly $8,801 per year, or about $733 every month. For a rental-property investor, an expense difference of that magnitude can completely change the economics of a deal. Why You Can't Just Compare Mill Rates This episode isn't intended to suggest that investors can simply take a city's headline tax percentage, multiply it by a purchase price and call it done. Assessment systems aren't standardized across Canada. Different jurisdictions can have separate school taxes, regional levies, parcel taxes, waste charges, borough-specific taxes and other fees. Properties can also fall into different classifications. That's why investors need to research the actual property they're considering. Wayne's 5-Step Property Tax Due-Diligence Process When analyzing a new rental property or unfamiliar market: Get the property's actual previous tax bill. Don't rely exclusively on an MLS listing or what the seller tells you. Determine whether the current assessment reflects recent renovations, additions, secondary suites or new construction. Look for separate charges including school taxes, regional levies, parcel taxes, waste fees, stormwater charges and local improvement charges. Verify the property's tax classification and whether your planned use or renovations could change it. Stress test the deal. Don't assume today's property-tax bill will remain unchanged for the next 10 or 20 years. Property Taxes and the 5% Rule This is another reason Wayne emphasizes cash flow. A property that barely works using today's expenses can quickly become a bad investment when property taxes, insurance, maintenance or other costs increase. The 5% Rule™ cash flow test is: (Annual Cash Flow ÷ Down Payment) × 100 5–6% = sufficient 7–9% = strong 10%+ = excellent Cash flow isn't simply money to spend. It's part of the financial buffer that allows an investor to absorb unexpected changes while continuing to hold the property for the long term.

$107.4 million across all households in Palm Beach County equals just over $172 per year. That's how much money you've been paying in taxes each year to facilitate the education of illegal aliens. And this is also where this issue meets property taxes. Based upon where you live, approximately half of the property taxes you pay go to pay for the schools. The top two taxing authorities in almost all jurisdictions are school taxes to the state and school taxes to the school district. That's where most of the money to pay for the 'free' education has been coming from. And here's the thing. The irony is that Matt Lincoln & other GSS Newsers are advocating for children and for compassion. The irony is it's the antithesis. The compassionate position for illegal aliens isn't advocating to make it a bit more comfortable to break the law through light enforcement of it...and to have their children grow up without legitimate status. The compassionate thing is to encourage emigrating into the country legally. Every person, every family who has been in this country illegally has been offered an opportunity to be flown back to their legal home with $1,000 and the ability to begin the legal immigration process. That's what compassion is. ICE activity is what happens when you're here illegally, and you chose to refuse the compassionate offer to comply with the law. There are two sides to stories and one side to facts. You get those here. Apparently not so much with whatever Lincoln is thinkin'...

A New York condo sold for $238 million, but the city assessed it at just $15.5 million. Mayor Zohran Mamdani has framed his new pied-à-terre tax as a way to “tax the rich,” but a recent article by Ken Girardin, “The Sheer Absurdity of New York's Pied-à-Terre Tax,” argues that the bigger problem sits underneath it. Chuck Marohn talks with Urban Three founder Joe Minicozzi and land economist Lars Doucet about how classifications, assessment caps, and decades of special rules can shift the tax burden away from high-value property. If the system is already distorted, does adding another tax make it fairer or just harder to fix?

You might wonder how a podcast on urban planning, design and development could get interested in the arcane subject of property taxes. Except that, it's all over the news lately, and its another fundamental issue than actual normies care about. People in my city have left it because of outrageous tax re-assessments. Developers and investors won't invest in my County because of the same. And, frankly, we are a fairly no-drama, modest cost part of the world compared to many places.So I turned to Jaime Izurieta to start this conversation. Over at his Substack, The Vertical Sidewalk, Jaime recently authored a piece called “When the Levy Breaks,” which is a thorough introduction to how we got here with property taxation. I found the history incredibly interesting, and as a good a starting point as any for diving deep into this topic.As Jaime likes to say, “We don't know that our way of doing this is the best. And we don't know it isn't.” But if we don't start by understanding how we got here, we'll never understand how to move forward.Find more content on The Messy City on Kevin's Substack page.Music notes: all songs by low standards, ca. 2010.

What happens when a country embraces socialism—and could America be heading down the same road? Tudor Dixon is joined by Manhattan Institute fellow and Venezuela native Daniel Di Martino, who shares firsthand insight into how socialism transformed his homeland and why he sees warning signs emerging in the United States. Di Martino explains why he believes Americans still have time to avoid Venezuela’s mistakes, but warns about rising government spending, debt, nationalization, and politicians promising increasingly expensive government programs. Tudor and Daniel also tackle the battle over AI and data centers, including fears over electricity and water usage, whether data centers could actually lower property taxes and revitalize struggling communities, and why moratoriums could drive billions of dollars in investment elsewhere. Di Martino argues that America’s competition with China makes winning the AI and energy race even more critical. Plus, they discuss Venezuela’s oil industry, America’s energy future, Marco Rubio’s record on Venezuela, and why Di Martino believes JD Vance is likely to be the Republican presidential nominee in 2028—even though he personally sees strengths in Rubio’s experience and consistency.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Juan O Savin returns with Michael Jaco for a wide-ranging conversation about what he believes could be coming next for America—and why he says the months ahead may look very different from anything the country has experienced before. Juan lays out his prediction that the 2026 elections could be paused before Election Day, explaining why he believes unresolved questions surrounding voter rolls, election procedures and pending legal battles could become part of a much larger confrontation. He also discusses his interpretation of recent White House messaging and why he believes an Emergency Broadcast System-style announcement could eventually play a role in what unfolds. The conversation expands into property taxes, municipal and school bonds, financial fraud allegations, civil unrest, federal emergency powers, arrests and long-term detention scenarios, as Juan explains how he believes these issues may intersect during a potential election pause. Michael and Juan also discuss the upcoming Storm Summit in Las Vegas, featuring speakers and presentations centered on elections, government accountability, 9/11, fraud investigations and other controversial issues. Juan's statements regarding a future election pause, emergency broadcasting, detentions and related events are his predictions and interpretations discussed during the interview—not established future events.

Lisa Boothe is joined by Will Hild, executive director of Consumers’ Research, for a deep dive into the growing backlash against data centers and the massive infrastructure buildout powering America’s digital economy and artificial intelligence boom. Hild argues that Big Tech helped create its own political problem by failing to explain how essential data centers are to everyday life—and by ignoring legitimate concerns from the communities where these facilities are being built. He breaks down questions surrounding electricity prices, water consumption, noise, development and the impact on local communities, while explaining why he believes many fears surrounding modern data centers are overstated. Lisa and Will also examine allegations of Chinese influence operations targeting the American debate over AI and energy policy, as well as Hild’s argument that elements of the ESG movement have shifted their focus toward opposing data-center development. They discuss how distrust of Big Tech following years of censorship, deplatforming and corporate political activism has helped fuel resistance to the industry’s latest expansion. Plus, Hild explains the potential upside for communities that welcome data centers, including a larger tax base, infrastructure investment and potentially lower property taxes. He makes the case that America can expand the digital infrastructure needed to compete in the AI era—but that companies must once again recognize that the consumer comes first.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Craig and Kevin have a guest in the studio this week: Jessi Cowart, a lifelong Montgomery County resident from Oak Ridge North who is running for Texas House District 15 as a Libertarian. The seat is open because Steve Toth is running for Congress, and Jessi says that if she wins she would be the first Libertarian ever seated in the Texas House. She came across our radar after our last conversation about Flock cameras, and she has plenty to say about them. First, civil asset forfeiture, which she calls legalized theft. Under the way Texas law is written the property itself becomes the defendant rather than the person, the burden of proof is almost nonexistent, and getting your property back is incredibly difficult even when you are never convicted of anything. Reform bills get filed every single legislative session and die every single session, and she puts that down to law enforcement lobby money rather than any real disagreement, since the Republican, Democrat, and Libertarian platforms in Texas all say they want it ended. Then the cameras. Jessi announced this week that she has drafted the Texas Automatic License Plate Reader Prohibition Act, an outright ban on government use of automatic license plate readers with anti-circumvention language in it. If she is elected on November 3rd, bill filing opens November 9th, and she says this is her first order of business. Her Fourth Amendment argument is not about one license plate seen in public, it is about the aggregate: a searchable database of where you live, where you work, where you worship, and who you associate with. We also get into The Woodlands Township unanimously approving $109,000 for 30 more cameras in December, with roughly $90,000 a year in ongoing cost after that, and the separate $50 million agreement to permanently end the City of Houston's right to annex the community. The longest stretch is property taxes, and she brought the math. Use the state budget surplus, which was running $27 to $28 billion at the start of last session and does not count the rainy day fund, to buy down school district M&O tax debt. Put real spending caps on local government, because Texas has five spending limits on the state and none at all on cities, MUDs, and school districts. Cut things like the $1.5 billion committed over ten years to Hollywood filmmaking in Texas. Then shift what remains toward sales tax without raising it astronomically. She thinks elimination in five years is realistic. Kevin tells the story of buying a house from an older woman who had a 65 and over exemption, and getting handed roughly $5,000 in back taxes two years later. We close on homeowner ground: why the median age of a first time buyer is now 40, why Jessi wants more small starter homes, duplexes, and condos rather than the same single family build on every parcel, her idea for a permit clock so permitting delays stop getting priced into every new house, why developers rather than existing taxpayers should pay for new development, and Craig's 25 year old employee in downtown Conroe who lined up three roommates before he closed on his first house.

   If you ask anyone in KC, it's a stone cold lock that Patrick Mahomes in starting against the Broncos in Week 1 and that includes asking anyone in the media.  But media outside KC are pointing out some contradictions in what the Chiefs are saying, and doing right now, and interpret this situation as totally up in the air.    I'd never heard of Farm School until I had lunch with Tim and Britt Cross of www.crosskitchenskc.com Wednesday.  Their oldest attends Farm School "Lolly and Pops" in Raymore and were featured on a piece produced by KSHB-TV.  This is one of the greatest school ideas ever... you have to hear this.    Senator Josh Hawley is targeting Flock Cameras alongside.... Bernie Sanders?   JOCO property taxes are going up again next year, your democrat leaders couldn't hate you more.    In Sports, the Royals win streak ends at 9 as they faced another Mizzou starting pitcher in Toronto.  The Big 12 joins the Big Ten and SEC in not allowing pros to come back to college and I think they made a mistake at least in the short term.  TCU pulls credentials from the largest media outlet covering their football team as they head for Ireland to face Bill Belichick's UNC team.  And TCU is 1000% in the wrong.    A new documentary by the best sports talk show host in KC, Carrington Harrison,  debuts Thursday night at Screenland Armour Theater in NKC and it's called Armageddon at Arrowhead.  It's about that epic MU-KU football game at Arrowhead nearly 20 years ago.    ESPN dumps something for college football, Tom Brady's store in SF gets robbed and a girl is dominating the Little League World Series.

Are data centers really draining local water supplies and jacking up your electric bill? We dig into the viral claims, the actual numbers, and the government policies hiding underneath the panic. Data center backlash is exploding, but some of the biggest claims deserve a much closer look. We start with viral posts blaming eight data centers for problems in Gary, Indiana, then examine what those facilities actually are and whether they are even operating. We also break down the biggest arguments surrounding AI data centers: How scary water-use headlines can leave out crucial context Why water withdrawal and water consumption are not the same thing Evidence that increased electricity demand can sometimes lower residential rates Why subsidies, government-created power monopolies, and infrastructure costs matter The libertarian question is not whether every data center is good or bad. It is whether companies bear their own costs, property rights are respected, and markets are allowed to solve power-generation problems without politicians picking winners and losers.
