I second Bjorn’s comments, but also urge you to learn about your local leasing requirements.

I thought if you had a building close enough to a campus and rent cheap enough for college students to afford then there was a chance to have a consistent flow of revenue.

My mortgage broker is urging me to use traditional lending, as my husband and I have pre-approval for nearly $1M.

I had a student contact me that she paid $30K to learn REI from a very well known GURU.

Here's a summary of my situation as an example: The unit I currently live in would rent for $2200My second unit is currently rented for $2700I rent my garages out for $350For the next duplex I would live in one unit & rent the other for $2200 I currently get paid $80k a year or $6667 per month.75% (2200+2700+2200) + 350 + 6667 = $12342 per month in incomeMy current mortgage is 2950, my next would be 3300, and my student loan is 250 = $6500 total debt.6500/12342 = 52.7% DTI

However, events like Easter contribute to keeping April among the best months of the year.May - Positioned as a mid-season month, May historically faces challenges as students have exams, and parents are saving for summer vacations.

My daughter will be going to college later this year and this has prompted me to begin in earnest learning about student housing with the goal of owning my first property by the time she matriculates.Who are the thought leaders and teachers around student housing here?

I sold to one of Scott's students for $23k.
