From one Salt Lake Investor to another: Welcome to BP!

Salt Lake CityA 4-5% B 5-6% C 6-8%

This month it will be at Buffalo brothers on Lake Boone Trail from 6-9 on the 26th.

I was able to save up enough money and have purchased two apartment buildings, one in Kansas City Kansas, and a second at the Lake of the Ozarks.  

I have purchased two multifamily properties, one in Kansas City, KS and one at the Lake of the Ozarks, MO.

If you're looking for properties around 50-60k in NWI in decent neighborhoods your best bet is the south side of Hammond or lake station.

My original plan was to purchase a lake front home for personal use/short term rental, with the emphasis on the latter.

Banks - Ally is safest @ gives 1%, cds/ local credit unions around 2%, lmcu(lake michigan cu) - 3% till 15k I think, some prepaid cards give 5% with some work(check doctorofcredit blog)..

Duplex, single family homes, lake homes, etc?
