I am looking into buying a rental property in the Boston area (it does not need to actually be in Boston) but I want to be able to rent to students and young professionals, as I plan to do a micro-unit, coliving type arrangement, and they will be my target market.

Those students will have to find outside housing now, so I've been looking into that area because I see its growing.

I will get approximately 26k from the deal (6 to pay off my student loan and 20 to invest in my first BRRRR). 

We currently have about 10k saved up and substantial amount of student loans (thanks to me) to pay off.

I read an article suggesting keeping rents high to target graduate students and faculty.

I am a seasoned realtor and real estate student here in Atlanta.

Ravenna has some great properties and is family oriented though, close to a lot of students from UW.

I'm also a first generation college student and I will be graduating in a year.

My team knows for months exactly what day and time the unit will be empty and having the summer be at the beginning of the lease guarantees that my students won't graduate and leave me empty-handed for the summer months. 

My goal was to rent that out to students $350 per room and most of these properties were 2 bedroom condos.
