Hello BP'ers,In the prospect of purchasing a SFH in Philly around University area but know that semesters have all started so am a bit concern about finding students to rent.

I would also stay on the west side of the university as the neighborhoods are much more desirable in the event you can't rent out to students.

A lot of cities have some organizations to help local people find place to live.Reach out to local churches/hospital/performing center/university if there are any there.

I highly recommend that you take the time to go through the Mobile Home University course before you make any other moves.

I had never heard of renting a property by the room outside of university systems and would like to know if anyone has experience with this and what criteria they used to chose this over traditional property renting.

I would imagine each unit would be better, due to less people to deal with, and avoid the place looking like a half way house.I'd focus on finding a 3-4 Plex near a university to really make your plan work.

I am using Index Universal Life to fund my real estate investments.
