      I think the best example is something that happened last week. I was doing the walk thru with my clients and the neighbor came by, introduced himself, starting chatting all about the subdivision and the deer in the backyard. My clients were impressed since they would never see that where they were from. People will smile and nod to you as you pass them on the bike path, but not so much as to get in your business. Live and let live. 👌

    Before you comment google Amarillo Tx real estate in the price range your looking at and be shocked at what you get for the same money. It completely changed my mind on re location.

      Don't forget the pros. You can get a solid home for under 250k or less, especially out in the plains. No state income tax and no local capital gains tax. Gas is not at a tourist price, it's $2.60 right now, that's equivalent to Wyoming and surrounding areas and less than most larger cities.

    Is there any type of senior citizen break on property taxes. Our property taxes are similar, but senior citizens have their assessed value discounted by $150,000 by state law. The borough (similar to what you Yanks call a county) I live in gives an additional $68,000 break. So my $3400 property tax bill is now less than $1000.

    • @TristanEmond
      @TristanEmond  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know you can apply for tax benefits or freezes. Not sure of the process or what it takes to qualify, but I've seen a few pop up, so I know it's possible. Each county would be different in its availability of programs and qualifications.
