I am under contract for an 8 bed/8 private bath SFH located in Kansas City, KansasPurchase price: $375,000Appraisal from 2020: $512,000 Downsides: waived inspection on a 100 year old previously renovated property and per zoning, cannot do STR (30+ days only)My brother will live in it free to help manage and plan will be to rent out to travel healthcare workers with two nearby level 1 trauma hospitals within a mile distance.I feel like I hit jackpot with this first investment property with $137k potential equity from the 2020 appraisal.

I am in healthcare for my W2 and quite a few investors that I network with tell me I should get into the space.

We want to live within 5 miles of a hospital since I'm a healthcare worker and also be fairly close to a beach or a sound. 

She should definitely take health care, vacations, etc. into account.

Diversified employment base (for example, Detroits reliance on the automotive industry in the past was/is a risk) Healthcare as a major employer is plus.   

I have been a lurker for about 6 months on BP but I have totally been invested in education, reading and podcasts every night like an obsession… I am a healthcare worker and also a mom of 2 little ones working very long hours..

Hi Nicholas,I'm working a full time job in healthcare as a surgical technologist here in NY.

I think for similar reasons to that of what you mentioned, a liberal arts college will be hit harder than that of a nursing/healthcare school.
