I realize it gets expensive if you apply for 8 places, but perhaps it serves a purpose as well in bringing in serious applicants only [where allowed by state law etc]I would love for there to be a universal repository trusted by all across the board so applicants would only have to pay once every 30 days or something [and of course I would want that to be us, heh], but I think for all sorts of reasons in a competitive marketplace that's not going to happen. 

I found a fsbo 3bdrm 2-story house near temple university. 

I got bored, with all of the down time between cashing rent checks and fixing toilets at 2AM so I went to graduate school and also became a an engineering consultant.About 10 years later I took a full time job again and am now a professor in manufacturing engineering, own a virtual manufacturing company, a media production company, and because of real estate investing, this year I will donate more than my take home pay back to the university I work for.I can honestly say that I retired at 26.

I didn't consider this to be a major impact to the market in Spokane initially as within the region there are a good number of universities already, but you guys bring up a very good point of bringing in additional bodies that will be looking to stay in the area for an extended amount of time. 

My thought process was this duplex would be my "Rehab University."

I believe the University of Denver has an undergrad program not sure about others.If you are looking for a corporate CRE gig think the MS RED at USC is likely bigger bang for the buck.  

Since we are taking ZERO out of the real estate biz we should be a wet dream for this kind of product.Challenge:  I have floated this desire out to the universe so far and I've been hit below the belt numerous times!  

I'm a new alumnus from Oakland University and will be starting at GM's Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Plant as an Industrial Engineer this summer. 

I am just about finished with my PhD in Cell Biology from the University of Chicago and am looking to get a jump start on real estate investing.
