Student Housing vs Regular Tenants
Hello BP community
I was wondering if anyone owned any student housing or student apartments for a university/school?
I am recently under contract with a two unit across the street from a 4 year university and I'm trying to see what goes into having it rented out to students vs regular tenants. Does the university want a cut of the rent? Does the university have regulations? Do you, the landlord, normally pay for some nicer amenities like internet and a desk to cater to students and charge premium rent?
I understand there's pros and cons to student housing but just wanted to pick your brains and see your input
Thank you in advance!
