Im a local agent/investor in the SLC area. 

Check local regulations on maximum number of unrelated people living under 0ne roof. 

Go to all local real estate meetups to make connections and learn2.

If you’re looking to invest in your backyard, it helps to network with as many locals in the industry as you can.

I am above 50% on standard Visa/MC, below 50% on Amex, and about 0% with anything that is like a local credit unions. 

Report him to your local licensing boards as well as make police reports, even if not a realtor he will get large fines and potentially criminal charges. 

try KiaviLima one these are large lenders that will give you a baseline on costs.. then google hML Boise for locals pick up the phone or make an appointment.

I have attended plenty Padsplit events and talked to my Account Executive (AE) and some veterans from Padsplit (the real expert, not newer sales person), and some Padsplit investors who own them and love them.
