We rent to a good chunk of college kids between December and January at the turn of the semester to kids starting in Spring.

Working towards having the work done by early next week so I can get students settled in for the fall semester.

Before starting my last semester of school, I listened to Rich Dad Poor Dad multiple times during a solo road trip across the U.S. and changed my mind 180 degrees to doing wholesale and investing.Would love to link up wholesalers and investors in Sacramento and Bay area! 

Hi @Brad Fletcher - 43607 isn't a bad place to invest, I owned houses around there back in 2010 but never got into the whole college "salmon run" concept (you have a TON of applicants nearing the end of Spring semester and if you go vacant in November you're screwed till the following end of Spring semester).Several BP members here specialize in that zip code, they will definitely be able to advise about that area.

Best of luck to you during your last semester!

next semester i am planning on doing an independent study with my finance professor about real estate investing and finance. does anyone know of any good books/text books that i could use as the foundation for this course?

Another thing you can try which they do in other college towns but not in Rochester too much is charge by the semester. (2 (5) month semesters) which you could then get away with charging prob close to 700.

I'm afraid if I say they cancel with 2 month penalty I could have some tenants cancel during spring semester if they drop of out school and I'm SOL for until next school year...

I am 18 years old and just finished my first semester at the United States Naval Academy.

After my first semester, I made the decision to drop out and get my real estate license with the intention to save up enough commision to get my first investment property and scale from there.
