Deed Restrictions. 

Also, though not common in Utah, if there is an HOA, you'll also need to check on rental restrictions with them.I purchased a single family home in Roy this past winter and it rented rather quickly at an attractive rate.

Places like Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, and Phoenix, do not suffer from this issue because there are few restrictions preventing builders from greatly increasing the number of available units.

You will get what you pay for essentially.For REI's, Virtual Assistants are best to help with listing management and coordination, email marketing and direct mail campaigns, market research, transaction coordination, social media, and buyer/seller/agent correspondences- things that are essential but also take up a lot of your time.

What is the local by-law occupancy restriction (i.e. number of unrelated adults per abode - most university towns have one)?
