Also the city is planning to extend the light rail to go through TSU towards med center I believe.

It's a very informative read and paints a rosy picture for the future.http://www.houstonchronicle.com/local/gray-matters...I might consider moving to either the north or west edge of Third Ward (near the Museum District, Med Center, or Midtown) if a really stunning opportunity presents itself.

I recently completed undergrad at Ohio State with a degree in real estate and urban analysis as a pre-med student.

Are you saying your wife’s meds are 22K per month?

Our levels are:Low - $10/sq.ftLow/med - $15/sq.ftMed - $20/sq.ftMed/high - $25/sq.ftHigh - $30/sq.ft.Full Gut - $50/sq.ftSo am example of low would be when someone says the house is in perfect shape.

While visiting, I found that my CA income, the lower cost of properties and good rental income near the university and med school enticed me dive into the real estate market.

I think if you are truly interested in real estate and investing then it will be much better for you in the long run to spend that time and money on real estate right now rather than med school.

You're just like "Here was my life at the time, I barely knew about bonds and was in med school buying a fancy car!"

After working my tail off as Pre-med for 3 years, I discovered I wanted to do REI and the last year was DREADFUL because I couldn't focus on anything but tests for which I have no use of in order to graduate and FINALLY start really learning real estate.

Of course, when your caller sobers up or comes down off the heavy meds(or gets back on her meds) you can re-contact her and use your "that was then, this is now" approach and tell her that she wasn't feeling well the last time you heard from her.
