Of course, I'm dumbing this down but it's focused on the gist here.Now, I planned on going long term buy and hold in a student housing market with SFH around the $100-150k mark.

I have a guy on my team that is successfully renting by the room to young professionals, travel nurses, and college students, but that is downtown Indy. 

I am a college student and wanting to get into real estate investing. 

Locally - this is our new law - https://www.tacoma4all.org/initiative01 highlights: no cold weather evictions (November -April), No school year evictions if tenant is student or works in a school (September - June). 

Being in college, student athlete, and new to the space, capital and time are a struggle to me.

However, I also have student loans of 123k with fixed interest from 4.3-6.3% and a car loan of 25k at ~8% rate. 

Drive to MIT walk in and ask to speak with the professor of computer science and ask which student is the best programmer and hire that student, you will also have more power to negotiate because students are broke and they will do anything to get money so you will save.3: I would implement a map where I can see all the properties in the area and I would have filters in place so I can see what I want from comps, to prices, etc I would STUDY my competitors and take everything they have and create an all in one app.

My name is Ethan, I am a brand new college student and I have been kind of stunned by what I have heard on BP, as I have listened and read books through High School.

My portfolio currently consists of LTRs and I am actively looking to expand it to include more SFH LTRs, and MTRs (potentially student housing).
