Debt which is extremely expensive at the moment and most likely destroys any profitability in the deal until rates drop, rents rise, appreciation accelerates again or all 3. That's what I meant.

I'd go with a town on the periphery that is about to get noticed.

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

Use leverage my man.

Big Daddy D

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

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

Jul 12, 9:54pm

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

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.
