In the older building cold/hot water, and gas(heat) are paid for by the owner and the electric is paid by the tenant.

The next step would be to work with the Realtor and determine the hot markets, in your County, with the greatest number of sales over the last 90 to 120 days.

your not the only investor in Utah feeling the heat from this hot market.

There are new subdivisions around every corner, a pipeline of new apartment complexes in every hot neighborhood, and finally some major mixed use developments in the urban core.

@Rod Hanks Most actionable post on this thread.I created the PETIO model as a format to quickly assess a wide variety of situations:Property - Estimate of as-is and after-repaired valueEquity - estimated balances of all mortgages, cost(s) to cure, payments/mo.

The important thing is to learn how to recognize a good deal and always be on the lookout for one as you build up your assets and your network - this way, you can be ready to strike when the iron is hot.

.* Doing that kind of sorting in a small, crowded, dusty, hot, cold space is awful.* In order to figure out what parts are missing from the delivery BEFORE you need the parts, the only viable option is to have someone stand in front of the delivery truck with your own bill of lading and manually check off every piece that comes out of the truck.

HOA will not take care of your CAPEX expenses, they will cover exterior maintenance, not your furnace, hot water heater, stove, refrigerator, dishwasher etc.

A hot neighborhood may need updated SS appliances regardless of the size but a market that is capped to lower - middle income doesn't care, those should just be clean and functioning.
