.- Large Tenant Pool: Housing programs often have waiting lists, so demand is high.

Thanks.I did see PassivePockets mentioned here but was not quite sure what it was about. 

I also notice that @Gregory Schwartz mentioned Huntsville in particular—I definitely think that it’s a strong market for long-term appreciation.As for your concerns about investing out of state, I think an investment strategy that is as close to passive as possible would be best.A do-it-yourself approach—where you acquire a property, place a tenant, interview a bunch of property managers, and handle maintenance yourself—is going to be pretty tough to do remotely.

Marcus & Millichap’s report also mentions the importance of universities to Pittsburgh’s rental market, “The considerable number of universities in Pittsburgh will provide a diverse hiring pool for the area’s growing tech sector in 2017 and beyond.

I believe Ryan mentioned this above.

As Andrew mentioned, you will have to be very price competitive to get January and February bookings.

@Samuel Kim: As I mentioned in my first post, speak with a qualified professional.

Personally I’d wait and see what happen.

Please mention city and state in your response. 

You can find a bunch of lists that mention top amenities such as hot tub, sauna, etc.
