I did a MLS search, and there is definitely nothing close to what you have in your neighborhood. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1066-28th-St-Oakland-CA-9...

We have been investing in the Pittsburgh market for the past couple of years and have 2 duplexes and are closing on a triplex in about a month.

When we did it, we did score some great deals, but what we found was that we were visiting so many properties to understand our "strike price" (the maximimum we would pay for the property when taking into account rehab costs, hold times, interest on any debt, closing costs, real estate commissions, a contingency reserve for "unexpecteds", etc) that the math started to not make as much sense.

I’m about to close my first deal and am eager to network with other investors, agents, wholesalers, lenders, and cool folks as I continue my journey. sup

I've definitely seen parents purchase properties close to campus to house their kids while they're at school, it's a solid move.

I initially intended to put down $50,000 to get a sellers concession where they would cover closing costs and a 2-1 buy down (we have to put down 10% or more down for the seller to be allowed to give us that that amount concession, around 5.8% off the purchase price of $484,500, seller concessions are capped at 6% with a 10% or more DP).

Families want their loved ones close.

The only cost we had aside from closing costs was a lock change fee of 70.00. 137% straight profit, annualized from the 60 day time frame to do the deal, is 822%.The last one we closed last week was a really bad note in a very rural spot in Indiana.

However, I cannot speak to apartments, as this depends on the individual complex.Additionally, we are finding a small number of properties for sale where the seller is willing to contribute to the buyer's closing costs.

But most likely you are going to have to find something else.What @John Underwood was getting at is that co-hosts or other managing people are very close to the property to handle all the issues.Also...
