While I believe anyone can joing CU's (unless they choose to stay private) they could have special considerations, like government employees/servive members where collections are a walk in the park so to speak.

Hi Wayne,Other neighborhoods to consider are the following: Near Eastside: This area has been seeing redevelopment and could offer good opportunities.Irvington: A historic neighborhood with a lot of charm and potential for renovation projects.Garfield Park: Another area that's been on the upswing and attracting investor attention.Mapleton-Fall Creek: This neighborhood has been targeted for revitalization efforts.Riverside: Close to downtown and has been seeing increased interest from buyers and investors.Reach out if you'd like to talk about financing options!

If you have a website, Instagram or other social page for the house, having those convey as well are always welcome.Our market is heavily driven by STR near the theme parks, so not sure how the SLC market works, but to me, having it still operating is a must.

For the investors I work with, I send my flippers to certain neighborhoods (Near east side, Crown Hill, Mapleton Fall Creek) and my LTR investors to other areas (West side, Christian Park, Martindale-Brightwood) -- there are some transitional neighborhoods that work for both (Brookside, Little Flower). 

I have been considering which area of REI to begin with: multifamily homes, mobile home parks, or short-term rentals.

I have a call scheduled Monday to discuss a cost seg but would love a little more insight before that meeting.We will be closing sale on a few RV parks in October.

I have quite a few that I'll list below however it will depend on what you mean by relatively low acquistion cost.For short term, you'll want to be in trendy areas like Broadripple, Holy Cross, Fountain Square, Bates Hendricks, Old Southside, Garfield Park.

They come with fantastic insulation between the floors, extra parking on the side with a separate entrance, their own laundry, and plenty of bedrooms up & down.

This helps you avoid vacancies and turnover costs.Other Revenue Streams→ Implement pet rent or additional fees for amenities or services (like parking, laundry, or appliance rentals).

The best thing I would recommend is getting a duplex near a dog park that way you're not sacrificing way too much.
