Welcome @Erik Naylor.  I am a newbie too just starting out down in Salt Lake.  You will love this site.  As @Brandon M.mentioned, jump on the podcasts.  They are awesome! Luckily I get over 1hr a day to listen to them and they have been invaluable. There are tons of really great people on BP ready to help out.  Just ask!

Hit me up if you find yourself down in SL and we'll talk shop!

I also believe that in addition to being able to have an "accessory dwelling" as Travis pointed out, if you plan to do short term vacation rentals in that space, that is a totally different beast. You might want to look into that further.

Hey, totally cool!  Nice work man.

Hey guys, can you post links to where I can learn more about those local groups?  I am a noob in Salt Lake.  Anyone looking to get together and chat real estate, I would love to meet people.  I work in Riverton during the days however.  Hit me up.

Howdy Cole!  I am up in Salt Lake and will certainly be needing some insurance guidance hopefully by the end of the year. Nice to meet you!

Kevin, I chuckle that I am welcoming you to BP.  I am just as green to the site as you are!  I am in Salt Lake however so I thought I would say hello and I hope to see you around! 

@Cameron Skinner Good point.  There is a lot of talk about how we should choose agents who own investment properties, so why not with other specialists on our teams?  Thanks for the tip.  I think that alone nixes the guy I was thinking about, even though he is very smart. Thanks

Oh awesome, exactly what I need!  Thanks, I will go check it out.

I am getting ready to meet with my first CPA specifically for real estate investing.   I want to make sure that I am starting out right with all my tax ducks in a row.  What questions would be good to ask a tax person to determine if they are a right fit, and knowledgable about real estate investing?  Beyond that, what other information about a finding a good CPA should I know or look for?  Thanks in advance!

Brandon and Brandon, thanks!  I am looking forward to the journey!
