Hi Paul, I would be interested in learning more about the property. Please reach out if it's still available Thanks! 

Hey Jachob, I am a newby investor in the Kzoo area and recently purchased my first property by Western Campus, knowing that I also wanted to focus on the college student rental space (3419/3421 W Michigan). Given that you don't currently own / rent an apartment, my personal opinion would be to find a duplex/multifamily that you can house hack to start off and and rent out after that 1 year mark and do it again (i.e. duplex BRRR). That would be my strategy if I didn't already have a very low interest homesteaded permeant residence and by far the easiest and fastest way to scale with minimal capital. Don't hesitate to reach out if you ever want to talk through my findings and lessons learned so far in my WMU college rental journey. Took me over 2.5 years to find one that the numbers worked for given this tough market for investors! Hope this helps.

Hi All, reaching out to see if anyone has any recommended investment property friendly lenders in the West Michigan Area, specifically Kalamazoo/Portage? I am currently partnered with Flagstar Bank but looking to shop around. Thanks all for any feedback!
