From watching the market and myself investing in Bryan/College Station, people are still renting out these properties nicely.They can be leased as a whole or rented by the room and are usually in great areas, close to the university, grocery stores, and restaurants.

When it comes to analyzing properties, I’ve developed a specific checklist to make sure the home fits both resident needs and operational goals:Square Footage: Ideally, at least 2,000 sq. ft. to ensure enough living space for residents and staff.No Stairs or Pools: It reduces liability and keeps the home accessible for everyone (this is just my preference).Corner Lots: I love corner lots because they often provide extra parking and outdoor space—both of which are critical for families and visitors.

Most hosts have a closet where they store extra supplies, so yes it's very important o have a locked supply closet.Hope this helps!
