Finesse that problem by getting graduate students.

Quote from @Conte Cuttino: Property is in C+ area but in a different School district that’s B-If I sale I’ll get 30k profit after 9 months.If I keep as a Long term rental I’ll have to convert the garage into a illegal 1 bed cottage at an additional cost of $35k leaving a total of $107k left in this deal after 70% refi and closing cost.

When I graduated I decided to pursue a career in becoming a real estate agent!

Our target towns are not in the urban centers but more suburban towns with good schools are moderately priced homes for families.

City-Data and Census.gov are solid resources, and sites like Rentometer can give you a good sense of rental prices.After that, I narrow it down to neighborhoods with strong fundamentals—good schools, low crime, and convenient amenities.

Some background on me - I went to college with a degree I thought I was gonna use, thought I wanted to apply to PT school, but soon after I graduated I had a massive change of heart and decided that I no longer wanted to pursue that route anymore because I felt my future was so much brighter than to be stuck working day and night in that kind of profession.

And it's not only the homes, you also have to fortify your grocery stores, schools and anything else.

I don't often speak to peoples background but in this case it's important and I would be surprised if half of them graduated Highschool.

-> WInding creek- Good schools, costly good rents.     

Sometimes, the more old-school approach like posting on local community boards can help you find reliable tenants.
