property: Salt Lake City, Utah makes top 10 list for best places to buy investment property
- 04/23/12 10:57 AM
Salt Lake City, Utah pops up at #6 on Marketwatch's Top 10 best places to buy investment property in the U.S. They cite low inventory and rising median home prices as reasons, but fail to mention that rents on single family homes are pretty high compared to the cost of homes right now. My presumption is that families who have lost their homes to short sale or foreclosure aren't too excited about renting a 2 bedroom apartment, so they are looking for single family homes to rent.

Is that actually how things technically work by default? You close and everything inside the home changes ownership?

I say could, because obviously a Seller could have left a car in the garage or something else by accident … (15 comments)
