They can do some repair to an old roof, then apply a plant based spray to the entire roof to replace the oils in the shingles that the sun has baked out over time.

Ex: If a tenant calls up to complain that their drain is broken or running slow, or that a light fixture needs replacement, or to spray the Apt with insecticide, or to fix a broken door-lock or window frame, or anything of the like such as the fast repairing, touching up, painting & cleaning needed during a turnover between Tenancies...

Salt air not so great for machinery.  

Take the following with a grain of salt, as I am not a lawyer, nor am I in your area.

I think this would make sense in the long run for the rental property as it will extend the life of everything it touches like the Sink, faucets, showers, water heater, dishwasher, and Clothes washer while also providing clean drinking water in addition to the reverse osmosis drinking water system I already have installed.The main problem with this hardness level is that we get a major deposit buildup on all of these items, which will eventually clog up the faucets for tenants and lead to rusty shower enclosures that take forever to clean.In addition to this, it looks like we could likely have the salt added every couple of months by the property managers in addition to that it would allow for a quick inspection from them, and then also we would instead bill the cost of the service onto the ledger for the tenants.For reference, it does not look like the landlords in the area have water softeners.Thank you everyone for your input ahead of time.

We're pretty open to anywhere in Salt Lake and Utah Counties, but we'd prefer to be east of the freeway in Utah County.

Here are a few very anecdotal personal observations: *Please note that there may or may not be larger market data that support/contradict these statements, and I am stating this only based on my extremely small sample size compared with the entire population, so please take that with a grain of salt  :)For our preferred price point, it seems that sale prices are generally outpacing rent increases. 

I'm newish to investing and I have my first tenant from Salt Lake City, Utah moving out at the end of the month.

As soon as one of those arises, roof, HVAC, windows, siding, driveway, you are at a loss.My opinion, and take it with a grain of salt, is to sell, take the cash you get back, and invest in a better deal somewhere else...Good luck!
