With your background in the SLC market, you should expect a salary ranging between $110k - $125k.

In fact, I was a senior in the SLC office at your firm and accepted an industry offer in the middle of that range when I left.

Nowadays in the SLC market, the opportunities have dried up. You’re going to be competing with at least 15 other people for the occasional decent senior or manager position that is posted.

Ooof that is kind of a bummer to hear. Scrolling through LinkedIn I see a ton of jobs that have healthy salary ranges. Maybe I should lower my expectations a little bit. I’m currently at $120k and was hoping to not take a pay cut on the relocation but I think I should be happy if I break even

115K-120K

150k range if your next role is controller

I second SM1. 130k is kind of a high end.

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
