if you own the property and can't find a tenant at your sky high rent prices, you can write off 100% of the rent as a loss.

it encourages the wealthy to buy valuable real estate and leave it vacant, managing it with occupation is too much work and also exposes them to liability, so it's better to have it vacant as a tax write off.

mine just has the time and it doesn't even have numbers on it. once you get past 3rd or 4th grade you can tell time without the need for a multi-thousand dollar watch + phone + laptop setup

back when we laughably entertained buying a house in SF, one of the only places to buy in our price range was hunters point, but they have a special double property tax assessment going on there, that they loving bury and don't mention.

not to mention that it's like 30 minutes to the nearest shop from the development.

as the guy who, without a doubt here, deals the most with china shipping, the gov't has got to pay for it all.

I get 2 day air freight on all kinds of poo poo for totally free from my factories. like 10,000 nickel enamel pins. it weighs like half a ton and they ship from inland china and arrive in 2 days.

what does withholding refer to ?

your company takes taxes out of your paycheck for you and pays them for you. you tell them how much to take out when you fill out a W4 form when you start a job. You pick the number of exemptions and if you pick 0, you get taxed more heavily, if you pick like i dunno, 4 or something you get little taxes taken out and usually have a big fat bill at tax time

maybe something close to a 100% property tax rate on rental properties that are SFHs?
