Shiller did his PHD at MIT in 60s w fellow student Dr Jeremy Seigel, whose latest edition of Stocks for the Long Run does a deep dive into US inflation, basically we had none from 1809 till 1945, house prices flat, then post WW2, lots of inflation and house prices up, if you remove the inflation, the red line in last chart above, house prices nearly flat again.

You find that east, you will find more college students, nurses, doctors, and traveling occupations.

The only reason our DTI is a problem is my wife has substantial student loans.

@Ardian SelimiYou said Alaska high cost of labor makes it hard to pencil out on existing homes but I think that would apply to the new builds also.For personal residences, I have rehabbed a house hack and buy two homes and the builds came out unpredictable even though the first home’s national production builder and the second home’s local custom builder both had plenty of experience with cost and labor estimates.For my RE investments, I went with where I could have a a good chance with building a team/knowledge/mentoring/experience.I grew up in a house hack, started with a house hack and then started with student rentals and then out of state airbnbs.

In the video above, Cody made more money on this deal with a student than VestRight has made in its history teaching this to students.  

Pace :) although his students are going to get wacked no doubt hopefully your students wont.

While you can’t completely control who applies to live in your properties, you most definitely can find areas that are popular with students, young professionals, families, etc. 4) just as important as finding the property, you need to have an exit strategy in mind for the property.

For all the helpful feedback.They are all students and some of them are working parttime , I will have them find another place soon.

I know that most people that are just getting into the business have the overwhelming urge to get started.

I was shocked to learn in many cases the students are taught to associate with other GP's and provide services such as capital raising, dilligence etc.
