Property Taxes and Insurance

    After the mortgage, two of the biggest expenses for buy and hold investors is probably property taxes and insurance. 

    To dispute property taxes I have used Resolute Property Tax Solutions and The Ray Tax Group.

    For property insurance I currently use The Hanks Group, Allstate and State Farm depending on the property. 

    Would anyone like to share who they are using to dispute property value and insurance coverage?

    Hi Philip.

    I have used Ola Tax (until they dropped the ball on me) and The Ray Group (at your recommendation). I didn't like the fact that Ray locks you in to a recurring contract.

    For insurance: American Modern and State Farm.

    I've used Bobby Ola (Ola Tax) for a long time.  Everything doesn't always go perfectly, but, for that matter, it didn't always go perfectly when my wife & I used to do all the work ourselves.  So... since they've done a pretty good job for us for so many years, I plan to continue using Ola Tax for the foreseeable future.  Bobby's number is (817) 987-1033.

    For property insurance, Eric Reish has been the best agent I've ever found.  IMHO, he stands head & shoulders above everyone else.  I could tell you story after story of how he's earned my respect over the years if you'd like to give me a call at (817) 300-1132.  Otherwise, if you'd like just call Eric directly, you can call him at (972) 805-4515

    When you call these guys, please let them know you heard about them here.  :-)
