I was thinking of doing rental properties near college towns as I think the income would be steady and minimal risk.What sort of capital is needed to get multifamily properties in B rated areas?

The asking price is 300k...Portion of sellers pitch:“Enjoy VIP status as an owner and 28 days a year of stay.

Yeah, I am same as Nathan.  6% for minimal work is ridiculous, but it seems to vary on sales price where we live too. 

The low risk requirement eliminated lots of investment types like trading crypto, venture capital, ultra high leverage real estate deals - except for maybe a very small percentage of my investable assets.Since I’ve already accomplished tax minimization by managing to hold the majority of my assets in a retirement plan and paid the taxes to turn that plan into a Roth, number 4 is not a concern.I do invest for current income as second place to wealth preservation, and increase wealth as third place.

"Don't pitch the *****!"

Lots of sprinting and short bursts followed by longer periods where there is minimal activity.Leasing season is 2.5 months of non-stop tenant inquiries and requests.

It’s a way to minimize risk with RE while getting a greater return than a long term rental.

There was a sales pitch to upgraded to PIG membership, of course, but there was no pressure or urgency in that pitch.
