It has a college-like feel to it with restaurants and a nightlife- I would check out Peddler's Daughter, Martha's Exchange, or even The Garden on a Saturday night.

I have a full time teaching job at a parochial school and also teach in the evenings at a community college. 

So I want to go into real estate, and I'm going to college, and they only have a minor for real estate.

My Dad likes to buy these types of properties and turn them into rentals to collect the extra cash flow from the non-conforming units ... double bonus if it is in an area with college rentals (that tend to rent by the room) or airbnb.

Is your rental a college rental or are you off campus?

Brittany Bauhaus I use to live in SB during college and I loved it there, I also understand the amount of money needed to purchase there.

You would be better served focusing on other aspects of your life and financial situation before trying to get into real estate. 1) Leverage your college degree to get a higher paying job2) Refinance or pay down your student loans.

I have a few expenses coming up like college tuitions for two kids (perhaps even grad schools)  that I know i have to budget for, and the BRRRR approach seems to me the best route for that, and plan for my eventual retirement.    

Home must meet these specifications: -3 Br 2 Bath, 1,100 square feet plus (preferably at least 1,300)-Single family home or duplex (In other words nothing attached to something I don’t own)-Purchase with renovations factored in must be below 80% ARV-Doesn’t have to be move-in ready today but it needs to be close enough to that point that I can move into it in 7 weeks-Location: Franklin, Spring Hill, Fairview, South Nashville, College Grove, North Columbia, Arrington, North Chapel Hill, Nolensville and anywhere else that would be within a 35 minute commute to 117 SE Parkway Franklin, TN 37064.

If you want to use rental income to send your 15 year old to college you really don't want to be looking at a home with a 25 year old roof.
