    So cool! They will have no problem finding tenants in the U District. Hopefully they can provide good housing to students

    @Bradley Dosch right?! I live over in east King County if you need any help in this area with clients. I am also looking for another STR for myself if you hear of anything.

    @Kim McGinnis- thats great - what is the size of the unit ? age ? realistic rent ? HOA dues ? whats is the debt service ? ( in other words is it able to cash flow positive with the debt incurred and taxes / hoa ?.......having had a son jsut graduate from UW - hope that your investor has girls live in it after their son is done with it :)

    @Dave Skow Thanks Dave! It's a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath condo ~ high hoa dues but it was worth it for my clients to purchase as their son will be there for 4 years.  They aren't looking at cash on cash return right now.
