@Ethan Bowen Thanks for the reply!  A Utah County contact would work too.  Let me know if you are able to find out who that was. 

Hello Bigger Pockets Community,

I'm looking for some suggestions of good Tax Accountants in the Salt Lake, Utah Area that know how to deal with Real Estate and small business situations.  Any good recommendations out there?

Thanks!

@Darren Nichols I think you only sent me a New Colleague Requests. Feel free to email me details at [email protected].

@Darren Nichols send me a PM with the details and I will see if it might work for us. Best of luck on your first wholesale!

Yes, I was referring to the company Black Granite. Just got mine done a week ago at $35/sqft I believe. If you look them up and give them the measurements they will give you a quote on the phone. A lot of installers will do this. If you look around to other installers they seem to have different granite featured as their lowest grade.

I'm pretty sure you can get about any granite installer to beat Home Depot's bid. Most recently I have used Black Granite and they did a great job for about the lowest price I could find. I'd call around to get quite a few quotes based on price per square foot.

Property Management fees can vary in rate, but from my experience are most often based on a percentage of rent collected. This can often be between 7-10%. There are many property management options in the market so I won't give any specific recommendations. Other options are to self manage and use a company that just finds qualified tenants for you. Best of luck on your first property!

@Bryce Till Welcome and good luck in your search! @Jason Fraser and @Ken Fricke gave some good suggestions on how to find buy and hold deals. The area where you buy really depends on what you are looking for in a rental property and the price range you can afford. As a general view of what I'm seeing- Salt Lake County has a solid housing base, Ogden can usually give you better returns, and Tooele has cheaper newer homes right now. They are all good options, but it depends on your strategy and goals.

Hi @Jordan Meyer , good to meet you. Yes I am actively buying throughout Salt Lake, Davis, Weber, and Utah counties.

Hello, my name is Greg Wilson and I live in Salt Lake City, Utah. I have followed some of the forums on BP for a while now and think it is about time I join.

I am purchasing a large number of single family homes throughout the Salt Lake area with a group called Restore Utah. I am interested in meeting more investors or wholesalers wanting to do deals around here and purchasing more properties. On an average month I purchase between 20-30 homes, with the goal of building a large rental portfolio in the region. One of the driving factors behind our portfolio is community revitalization by providing top quality rental units.
