I know dang good and well these "note students" are not getting that type of education.I paint with a broad brush, mainly because I can hold a big brush

@Aditi Chaudhuri When you say your property is a half mile from campus, are you a half mile south towards Center City and near Broad Street or are you half mile north, west or east of campus?

No broad cities cashflow great right now with managers, some look good on paper but they just have more costly hidden issues then the lower cap rate cities.

Internet is a hard place to accurately judge character. 

But i guess in today's world where things are on line and investors are used to Internet communications this is much easier than those days.

As I'm sure most of you know, a long-term rental is simple since the only recurring expense I own is the mortgage, whereas with a STR I'll own the mortgage, internet, utilities, furnishings, cleaning fees, etc. which just makes my projections a bit foggier.I'm looking for feedback on the below expenses and wondering what else I should be thinking about, that I don't currently have listed.

There have been at least 3 studies that show this is true for virtually every large city in the US (you can internet search this).- buy and hold is currently tough in San Diego.  

If you just grab one off the Internet, it will have a lot of holes.

Very broad and if this helps you get clarity then aweseome.1.

Has the price of internet creeped up while you were in the home?
