Student Houseing - Discussion on Timing

Hi BP,

For those who rent out to students.. is there a "best" time to post and start advertising your listing online, and a time I should definitely avoid?

Some background: I'm currently in the market for some small multi-families, and believe I've found a great deal near a research university. I'm nervous about renting to students this close to summer. If I close on the property in June, that means I only have July to to rehab it and get it listed and rented in time for a September semester (is that when school starts? I've been out for 10 years and can't remember, haha). 

Am I cutting it too close? What would you all do? Thank you!

Christian
