@Patrick O'SullivanSome ideas that I can think of that I have been apart of are best landlord practices, market trends, any potential regulations that might affect sales, management, operations etc. 

I am a realtor and investor in SLC and would love to ask some questions to local experts (Realtors, property managers, etc) about buying an investment property in St.

On one side, I buy the house and everything is managed through the company.

I follow some real estate investors and want to put some of the strategies I learned into play.A little bit about me: I came to the U.S. in 2019 to study electrical engineering and always tried to learn how to better manage my personal finances.

Material participation might involve managing properties, handling leases, or overseeing maintenance—activities that are more hands-on than those of a typical passive investor.I recommend doing some tax planning and see what options you have .

Admittedly, finding direct comparables has been challenging due to the unique nature of our family's home, but these figures give us a good starting point.I've taken the proactive step of having a property manager conduct an inspection, and preliminary feedback suggests that the renovations required might be relatively minor, pending the final review from the contractor.

I don't manage any apartments any more so just 1 & 2 for me.

My wife and I both work full time and as of last month I’m managing my own properties.

Based on the information that you have given, the loan application would be in your name since you seem to be the only one employed and use the rental income (75% of rent) to fully qualify you using your employment income, rental income versus your liabilities.

Live where you want to live and invest where the numbers make sense...You should look into markets with a higher rent-to-price ratio, you will probably be beating that 10% even with management
