Trying to learn how and where to start with rental properties
Hey everyone,
I am in the very early stages of getting into this world of real estate investing. I have had the discussions with my wife about wanting to earn passive income through rental properties and we are on board with the idea. We have no clue where to get started though. Any advice on how to start taking steps into our first rental property would be awesome! Thanks!
Casey

Hey @Casey Haight, I'm also based in Salt Lake, and was in a similar position back in 2017. It's definitely going to be more difficult in this market to cashflow on Long Term Rentals, but parking your cash into real estate is still a great long term mindset to beat inflation. I've been investing in this market for several years now, and would be more than happy to chat if you're interested. Sent you a direct message.
