Both my wife and I have worked 15+ years in the housing/homelessness and Mental Health Non Profit sectors and realized that if we are ever going to achieve financial independence, we need to begin developing side incomes.I look forward learning from other BP fans in the SLC (and beyond) and am interested in best steps for evaluating rental properties and beginning to understand the local market.
