@Edward James smith theres a great meetup at The Black Diamond in Spokane Valley, third Tuesday of every month at 6:30pm. https://reinetworking.com/Reach out anytime, I work with a lot of investors in the area and would be happy to discuss ideas.

Currently our favorite idea is a SFH we can convert to an up down duplex by sealing off a staircase with an ADU on the property for us to live in.

Great idea. :)

 @Jay Hurst great idea here.

While I have a rough idea on house hacking as a whole, I would like to know if there are some helpful insights on the Utah market specifically.

I also really like the idea of building a brand that you could sell.

If you ever want to connect and learn more about the turn-key world and swap business ideas, let me know, Id love to connect! 

However, normal wear and tear (like some dust or minor carpet stains) shouldn’t count.It’s always a good idea to take photos and keep a record of the condition before the tenant moves in and after they move out.

I’m gonna have to stretch if I want to buy in Los Angeles again, but I still think it’s a better idea than not.

That's correct, I spend $140 per month on QBO ($90 for one LLC, and $50 for the other) plus my bookkeeper that averages about $500-$600 per month.Great idea, and yes I would do a trial for a few months using both.
