Tooele County Investors

[Jordan Dzubak]

I work in Salt Lake County, live in Utah County with a duplex in Provo I just fixed up and getting ready to refinance (BRRRR FTW!). In the next couple of years I'm looking to buy up some properties, but the prices are getting a little crazy. Then I look at some of the 2/1, 3/1, 3/2 homes in downtown Tooele and they look like way better deals. I am unfamiliar with the rental market out there, but I do work on the Army Depot from time to time with my company and I always think that all these people working out here have to live somewhere, right? It seems like a great sustainer of the rental market. What are typical rents for those smaller homes out there (800 to 1200 sq ft)? Any flipping potential in Tooele? Are people buying out in that direction? Any success stories in Tooele County would be awesome. Or even Utah County south of Provo, because the prices seem to drop off in a similar fashion once you get to Payson, Spanish Fork, Mapleton areas. Thanks!
