Green street communities.

These were the neighborhoods around the Atlantic Rail Yards, Fort Greene, and Boerum Hill which is now home to the Brooklyn Nets and the site of numerous $400M luxury apartment developments.Of course this analogy is a stretch because of obvious differences between northern Utah and New York city.  

@Joel Duguay - As already stated, the tax implications should be a non-issue on the sale of your primary residence.As an alternative to selling, you could also pull out a ton of equity with a HELOC and potentially have your cake and eat it too.  

Hey Brent It will only be a rental until my green card is approved.

David Greene and I do out of state investing, we also hold free monthly meet-ups in the East Bay if you are interested in attending, please reach out and I would be happy to send you details.  

Can't have your cake and eat it too. 

There is no-one more desperate than a landlord that can't sleep or eat because they're being stressed out by such a tenant.

If it's a mid-level rehab, updating the kitchens, bathrooms, painting and refinishing the hardwood floors can eat up that $21K pretty fast...Regardless, my big question for you is, what happens if you can't sell the property?

HUD approval generally is provided 72 hours prior to closing for the green light to close so it seems like you may be confusing terms as a buyers inspection would already be done by this point. 

even electric car parts need to be made somewhere, if the country stops eating meat, lettuce still needs to grow somewhere haha the pipe that pumps concrete to the top of highrise buildings Is made in my backyard.
