As part of FIG I am noticing very stable jobs in the South Salt Lake/Lehi areas that are a little less affected by Oil prices.  

If you aren't thereto personally oversee maids, repairs etc. it can be very expensivei know ocean props require a lot of maintenance upkeep just due to the salt in the air (my aunt had a 2nd home and talked about how the salty enviro eats thru everything sooner or later. 

If your property is in Galveston then be prepared to deal with a ton of more maintenance due to the salt water and air that rust out everything.  

Did not go to college so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Even the old salt investor types pay too much and under estimate.

Hi,   I live in California, I recently visited Salt lake city, UT and was amazed to see how SLC has so much of housing & infra development going on.

(I've never wholesaled though so take my advice with a grain of salt)I'd personally shoot for a BRRR buy and hold strategy.

I am young and hungry, with a desire to understand the Salt Lake/Wasatch Front market better than anybody, which is why I decided to get into the business and get my license when I was just 20 years old...

Try putting salt everywhere.
