After spending the past 12 months lightening my holdings, I currently have 5 investment properties left. 3 of them are in Salt Lake City and 2 are in Indianapolis.

Of the ones in SLC, two are located in Saratoga Springs with spectacular (spectacular to Californians who are used to “desert views” and dried-out shrubs) views Lake Utah. Here’s what one of them looks like.

And here’s the kitchen.

Its about 10 times nicer than my place in San Diego; at 1800 sq ft, its twice the size and and (with a 20% drop in San Diego prices and a 30% rise in SLC) only about 10% more expensive. But unlike my condo in SD, it sits on a quarter acre of land.
