@Devin Beverage Thank you for the response. I am looking to invest in Tampa in the future. I want my first property to be in the area I am living. With that being said, I am helping my parents with this endeavor. I think they are on board with the same strategy that I am using. The reason behind having medical students/residents as tenants is we can relate and I understand their struggles. I am hoping that having medicine in common with my tenants will precipitate a good relationship, and who knows, it could lead to networking opportunities.

@Eric M. Thanks for the response. I am finishing up my Emergency Medicine training now and have about 6 months left. Do you have experience contacting the residencies directly? Did you find that helped out getting your properties rented? I do know some of the junior residents, but I will be moving to Atlanta next year. I was hoping to rent out to Emory residents or medical students. My parents are also looking into buying property in the Tampa area. It was my idea to target medical students as a general strategy. I spent some time in California and rented from a guy who only rented to medical students and residents. He did pretty well and was happy with the extra income. I always thought it was a smart idea.

@Andrew Kerr There were no specific forums or message boards that I am aware of.  There are several restaurants around the hospital, but no specific spot that is the "go to".  Any thoughts on contacting the hospital, medical school, and residency programs directly? Do you have any experience with this or something similar? I am new to real estate investing and trying to figure out some of these details. 

Appreciate the advice.

Does anyone have any experience renting to medical students or medical residents? How do you target them specifically? I was thinking about purchasing a property close to the hospital. I am finishing up my medical training, and I was wondering how to get started. Having gone through medical school and residency, I know that most medical students and residents are reliable/trustworthy making them great tenants. 

Thanks for the help.
