Without a doubt, real estate investing is one of the greatest sources of wealth in our country.

Popularized by the Buy, Renovate, Rent, Refinance, and Repeat method (BRRRR), many real estate investors now purchase properties with the goal to remodel them, rent them out to generate cash flow, and then refinance the property to capture the equity they’ve created and use the cash to buy a new property and do it all over again. In this process, refinancing plays the most critical role, and when it comes to refinancing any property, lenders will usually require another appraisal. Many investors, however, erroneously assume that this second appraisal will cause their property taxes to increase. In this article we dive into detail why this is not necessarily the case.
