It seems that 1% or 2% rule doesn't really apply in SLC area.

Hi all, I am new to BP as a newbie investor. I have been screening deals on MLS for over 200 listings and it seems it is mission impossible to find a deal that is even close to 1% rule. Any thoughts, folks?

I am an investor in Utah. I quickly realized that the price point in Utah was not favorable. I have moved on to other markets in the mid-west. Even Southern Idaho has some potential. Grab David Green's book on Long-Distance Real Estate Investing. @David Greene He will build your confidence in going to other markets.  I signed contracts on two properties in the mid-west last week and I owe a lot of that to that book. It is totally possible.
