Last year I got my 100% VA disability rating and not having to pay property taxes has been a blessing.

[@DallasRelocationGuide]

Man that’s a BIG win! More cash and no taxes

[@shakarussanders9911]

I grew up in the Dallas/Ft Worth area and compared to the late 90 and 2000s , which is when i started living on my own it's so much more expensive than it was back then! It's my hometown and i love it but the bang for you're buck is not what it used to be we were known for that

[@TroyPrévostMusic]

I'm from DeSoto! Love the DFW. I'm not sure if it's where i'll settle with a family, but man one thing you cant take from Dallas county and North Texas is you've got so many options to live the life you and your family want to live. Townhones, mega properties, even highrises. It's nit as much 'bang for your buck' as it used to be but it'll always be home to me!💗

Great video! New subscriber. Very thorough and detailed. Very professional and a good flow, editing. I mean we see clean drone views. Accurate on so much…Glad this is our final year of paying private education preschool but then there’s the expensive Summer Camps I work hard to avoid. I love Texas but it is becoming expensive with the growth and business development. We love H-E-B and Buc-ees. We don’t want to leave Central Texas (yet) but it’s set to increase in all aspects year-over-year….

[@DtrainB]

People keep talking about no state income tax. What about tolls, higher property tax

[@DallasRelocationGuide]

Tolls are dependant on where you live. They tend to be in higher priced areas. Property taxes are higher, but you cant write off income tax on your tax returns. If you understand the Tax Game you can use the property tax to offset what you end up paying uncle Sam.Which makes it wash. If you don't understand the tax game than yea..... its higher.
