Hi Jared, Would love to connect some time and hear more about you help investors.  

Quote from @Julian Thomas: Quote from @Wale Lawal: @Julian ThomasYou're in an amazing position by thinking about real estate this early, and with a full-ride scholarship, college is a no-brainer—it gives you time to learn, network, and build capital without debt.

However, don't have any of those loans anymore (most paid off).The only thing I do that you don't, is use trusts, and love them and they have saved my bacon a number of times.When you said all those loans have paid off, are you utilizing other methods than Sub2 at this time?

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

I went back to Memphis last year for the first time in six years to find all is as advertised with very minor exceptions.We have picture inspections done every four months, cost $75, because I'm a trust but verify guy.Good people, good service.
