Buy a house as college 529 account?

[Wilfred Mkilindi]

I have a 6 months old son and he is my only kid, am planning next year (paying off consumer debts like student loans, medical bills and personal loans at the moment) to start RE investing mainly on rental properties. Thinking my 1st rental to have it as a college account meaning cashflow will reinvested to the property and when he is ready for college 15-17 years from now i sell the property use funds as tuition, i don't want him to have student loans. Good idea or not?
Thank you

@Wilfred Mkilindi I don't know where you are located, but if you were say, in NY you could take the cashflow and throw it into a 529 and get the bonus of free growth as well as a limited deduction on your state income takes. 

My rental properties fund my children's 529 plans as well as their current educations and fun stuff. I would advise against plowing cashflow back into a property- in 15 years you should have ample equity. It is very important to build reserves and put that money to use- it is one of the motivators for me to stay in this game on tough days.

Good Luck
