''In this world, nothing is said to be certain except for death and taxes.'' - Benjamin Franklin
If you have or want to buy or sell a home, you know how critical it is to understand the taxation of property. There are several ways that you can save money on your property taxes.

1. Interest Deduction- ability to write off the interest of your home.

2. Property Tax Deduction- additional write off, put a little bit more on your pocket.

3. Exclude Capital Gains- if you are a single person you get to save up to $250,000 and  up to $500.000 if you are married. 

4. 1031 Exchange- ability to not pay any taxes or you can do a transfer to a like- kind property. 

5. Depreciate the asset- for investment properties, depreciate the value of the property.
