I'm not sure if this allowed on here: My niece is looking to rent a house in Blacksburg, VA for her senior year (starting August 2024) at Virginia Tech. Can any realtors out there help?

Thanks Stefani.  I appreciate the info.  I see your local to where I am.  If you want to partner up/bounce ideas/ask questions, contact me.  I know the following areas really well:  Nutley, Belleville, Bloomfield, Verona, and Cedar Grove.  I also know Lake Hopatcong somewhat.

I'm kicking around the idea of buying a 2 family and renting it out by the bedroom.  One particular house I'm looking at is 3 bedrooms/1 bath on each floor.   So I would rent out 6 bedrooms.  Each floor would have 3 people (3 bedrooms on each floor).  Is 3 people sharing 1 bathroom not gonna work?

Definitely don't pay it upfront. You might want to look for a new HML altogether. They sound sketchy asking for that upfront. Also, $1,200 is a pretty high application fee.

Jeremy, what's your email address?  I can send you a couple of documents that I think will be helpful.

1000% worth reading.  You'll get plenty of good gold nuggets from it and it won't take long to read it.

Welcome aboard!  I'm just going to piggyback Nathan Gesner and say:

-Study your market until you know it like the back of your hand

-Keep educating yourself throughout your journey

-Keep networking throughout your journey

Good luck!
