Student debt of $500,000?.

Target groups are students and  young pros.I want to start a real estate agency and bring in some goods working practices from the States.

I've rented to ~1,000 college students and only had 4 not pay their lease in full.

It should work fine, particularly if you have access to folks who need less space and lower rents...think students, medical interns, etc.

Was wondering about buy and hold renting to students.

However, it depends where you both are on your risk-tolerance for taking on additional debts while you have student loans that have to be paid no matter what.

Beyond that, you could look at specialty asset classes, like hotels, medical, senior housing, or student housing.Good luck, and please feel free to get in touch with any specific questions!

My wife was going to pay off her $20k student loan that was at 2% or something. 

., on anyone over 18, even if a dependent like an elderly parent or college student living  at  home.
