I’m a senior at my college currently and really want to dive into the world of real estate, especially investing while I am still in school.

My single family unit is near a college and I rent to college kids. 

Realizing this may be a challenge for me I started looking into properties in the college town of Athens.

Just graduated college (Gordon College in Wenham.

I can’t afford anything in the NY Metro Area at the moment, so I’m exploring areas in:my home state of Vermont (Southern VT mainly)Keene, NYPittsburgh, PA where my brother livesKingston, NY (Upstate NY area/Catskills)North Adams, MA (college town)I’m trying to stick to areas I have some ties to since it will most likely be an out-of-state situation with a property manager.My goal is to buy a 2-4 unit property that is in decent shape, rent the units, and have one unit for myself to come to when I want to get away from NYC.I’ve been running numbers on both the rental property calculator and the BRRRR calculator with varying results.

One reason is my age of 61, about 30 years in construction management, about 30 years I had real estate broker license in Texas, and I got a college graduation degree in Business (that emphasized real estate) , and being born and raised in Dallas, Texas.I'm completely un-knowledgable and where to be in Minnesota and is beyond my knowledge.   

I started working in property management 3 years ago in my last year in College.

As a recent college graduate, I am finally in a position where I have enough money to invest, and it just hurts to see it sitting in a bank account not earning interest so I'd like to close my first deal soon. 

Some of them are college students and their parents will step in and pay it. 

Especially since 2 casinos opened and the college is on the horizon.
