The FIRE movement is the biggest fallacy in existence and like you said, a giant echo chamber that will implode and then everyone will say they were scammed when they were just looking for a hack to retire early.

My biggest pain point is rounding up help to move them in and out, as I'm a solo self manager.

We don't need to "make homes cheaper", we just gotta remove the barriers and special interests that support monopolies, limited competition, centralization, corporate over private, and take things back to middle America, small business, main street over wall street. 

There are NO institutional investors that will jump on this kind of deal, but you can maybe find a private lender or do a Joint Venture (equity split?).

I got started with private money back in 2009 and those were scary times.

One of the biggest pros to renting to students is that you'll never get a call on Christmas Eve or other holidays because they are usually not there.

Typically they are not eligible for traditional financing which implies other funding sources (HML, private Monet, self funded, etc).  

I think your biggest concern would be the pre-payment penalty that comes with most DSCR loans.

Do they have the necessary resources to stay on top of all the tax issues such as 1031 exchanges, 754 Step-Ups, etc.Feel free to send me a private message if you have any questions here.A couple articles you can read that will be helpful:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/1206189-cost-...https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/1204912-how-t...
