Texas Real Estate Bible Podcast Karen Scott, Kevin Scott

Wire fraud rears its ugly head and strikes one of Karen's clients.

Karen and Kevin dive deep into the dark underworld of property taxes when they uncover shenanigans being played by a new home builder aimed at increasing the tax assessments on houses that had already been sold.
After enlisting the help of a local journalist, they end up face to face with a surprisingly helpful representative of the Harris County Tax Office.

We normally tend to try to steer clear of discussing politics because frankly, the topic sucks, and it's not entertaining to hear people bitch and moan about what's wrong with the country.  After all, if you want to see a change in how our government works, you should run for office and do something about it instead of complaining.
This week, we bring you an example of just that.  Jon Rosenthal is a personal friend of ours who has put himself out there to run for a seat in House District 135 for the Texas State Legislature.  Regardless of your political stripe or affiliation, we think you'll enjoy the conversation we had with Jon, and we wish him nothing but success!
If you live in his district in Cypress, TX, we hope you'll pull the lever for Jon in November.

Where have we been?  That's a good question.  Listen to this episode to find out what caused our long break from the show and what you can expect for the future.

In today's episode, we interview Joseph Gozlan from EBG Acquisitions.  Joseph is a multifamily investments specialist. Leading group acquisitions of over $11MM in real estate and providing asset management services to a portfolio of 156 units with 97 additional units currently under contract and growing.
In our conversation, we learn more about multifamily properties, how syndication works, and how individuals can participate in these investments with their retirement dollars.  
Joseph is also the author of the book, "The Real Estate College Fund", which helps first time investors recognize the advantages and risks of investing in real estate, and offers ways to mitigate those risks.
Also in this episode, we cover some listener feedback that proves that Kevin is (occasionally) right!

It's been a long time since we published our last episode.  Too long.  In today's episode we catch you up on the series of unfortunate events that have kept Karen and Kevin away from the mics for so long.
