The reason is simply supply and demand ... if there an abundance of high paying jobs and it is generally a desirable place to live, then many wealthy people will pay a premium to live there, and they will generally prefer to live there long term and favor owning over renting ... this is reflected in the market pricing. 

Matt,I know you are an enormous fan of UCLA Anderson's forecast, but taste some other Kool-Aid out there too!

The seller is working on getting the house classified as habitable again so that I can buy it, but I don't think they will remove the boards from the windows and doors and frankly I would prefer they leave it to help deter squatters.  

Of course, I might prefer just flipping it.

hi Everyone,Just interested, why many investors prefer to register their investment property on their LLC rather than to their own name?

It's your own preference.

We would prefer to ask them to move(3 months ahead, April-May), revive the units and rent them to new/better-screened tenants but at the same time we are concern about vacancy (although we are in Madison and the area is nice so it should rent fairly quickly). 

Yes, change your lease template for future tenants to say that rent is late if not received by the 5th (at the latest, I prefer the 3rd).And yes, once you get this 4th judgement, you can request "no right of redemption" on the warrant of restitution that you'll file 5 business days after the rent court date.

My taste has switched to the A , B assets only.

I have not found anywhere in Utah where the second kitchen increases value because more often than not, people looking for homes like this would prefer the extra space for larger families than somewhere to stash a mother-in-law.I have not seen any negative repercussions regarding licensing.
