Really tempted to get out now. Polaris area, Olentangy schools, Alum Creek Res, .... Only problem is what / where to move into. Would love to move into the city but townhouse market has gone off the charts like stand alones. And the townhouse market up by me is no money saver either.

Here's what a million will get you around here http://mymobile.flexmls.com/kingswayrealty/idx_links/20090304170052134902000000/listings/20170329162301342382000000 i think the house he listed would get more depending on the suburb it was in here. possibly in the 400 range. on top of that, the house you showed would be over a million. that place is awesome.

I have never been out there & I heard it is a very nice place to live but it gets annoying when they come back into town & they constantly find the need to put down other parts of the country(especially WNY). Your happy where you live, great. Why do you constantly feel the need to put down other places of the country? & I am sure you will get it but anybody that pays $1 million for your place or the place you listed is a sucker. There is nothing special about that house you listed & my guess is there is nothing special about your house either. you can plop the same house in different areas, and you'd be shocked how the prices would change.

And that's the killer. The property taxes in NY. Over $10k a year for a "modest" home? You get rid of your mortgage but you have that albatross around your neck? No thanks.

That's what were dealing with. we found the house we love on the exact type of property we want. the house was in our range, but we really had to come to terms with the taxes. if we decided we didn't want to pay them, we'd just be compromising on the house we really wanted. you get totally handcuffed by it. we just moved in 2 years ago, but i'm paying off the principal pretty aggressively. that being said, even when done, we'll still be paying close to 2 grand a month in taxes.

It makes me wonder how hard it is for people in high property tax states like NY to have positive cash flow on rentals.

Where I lived in Florida you could have a nice house on a golf course or pond, and the same house across the street with a full bay view would go for $250-300k more. All day long.....

In our county when you turn 62 the school portion of your property taxes go away...and it's about 2/3 according to a neighbor who recently had his taxes drop.
