I excited to get into this REI lifestyle.

This is important to me because I want to be able to provide my family with a healthy and prosperous life style.

Buying a place here, you're idea is Sugarhouse has become too expenses for the average buyer, those looking for a similar lifestyle will move west of 7th east. 

Also, I'm a hands-off investor, so I find property managers and strictly stick to managing the managers.My goal is to hand off my properties to my kids at some point, preferably through seller financing so that they can get a good deal, I can quit running "the business" to have truly passive income streams, and they can have "passive" income to free up their own lifestyle options.That makes it a win-win in my book.

Lifestyle expenses 3000/month (our enjoyment)Paper Assets:1.

you do owe it to yourself to Check out Grand Junction Colorado Investment oppurtunities as well as the outdoor life style " A GOOD DAY OF FISHING AND HUNTING is ALMOST as GREAT A DAY as INVESTING " lol  No matter where you go watch out for those California Transplants lol !!

Your story and lifestyle  sound very interesting. 

If you're looking to retire in a few years and you want a simple zero hassle lifestyle perhaps a REIT or a solid stock/bond portfolio would be great.  

Unless they made lifestyle changes and cut other monthly expenses, assistance in making their mortgage payments is not going to solve their problem.

I've actually joined Lifestyles Unlimited and have gone to one class so far.
