Expensive leverage is exactly why $300k isn't enough in Utah right now.

Right now it pays much better to be a lender than a borrower.

You will make more in a money market. 300k in ut not enough.

Asset appreciation is exactly why, if we are not trying to be cute here.

Short term doesn't look good in Utah.

I’m with you there. Interest rates will decline but insurance rates will not.

Big Daddy D

OK. It is enough but you suggest waiting a little while.

You said it wasn’t enough in Utah. Seemed clear to me what you meant.

Acorn

Generally speaking it isn't enough to avoid taking on debt currently.

Asset acquisition cost is high. Rates are High. Cant get much of an ROI

With that little amount, just put it in an index fund. It's not enough

Use the index and don’t add to the housing crisis problem

Nakedbootleg

adding a rental unit to the market doesn't impact the housing crisis.

Yes it does

I know a guy who invested his $300k online with a scammer. His ROI be real low.
