I even had some that got jobs as lawyers and continued to stay for several more years after graduation.If you can market directly to the grad students, then you can avoid the undergrads, which are horrible high-maintenance noisy party-animals - except the undergrad engineering students, in my experience.Grad students are smart, resourceful, and reasonable to deal with in my experience for the most part.  

Jon Pacitto to me there is a macro and micro analysis that needs to be done.

And if possible, I'd do a few drive-throughs at different times of the day to see if it's noisy.  

Every complex she rented was very noisy and the managers never did anything about it. 

Seniors are not normally as destructive or noisy, etc. 

Noisy, sticky, dirty, destructive kids.  

I would describe their events as upper-level, though, because they usually explore macro topics necessary for appreciation gains.

Not that I am into that side of things as I have a property manager, however I have heard of others using it.legally, wouldnt 'play' with excuses to discriminate (ie, telling families their reference check didn't clear meanwhile 'preferring' studens for the unit or house) unless there was a bona-fide loophole to do so (ie, a statute allowing for an owner to Prefer Students for their Rental House because the owner is also a student living in the house). that's simply a risk i would not want to take unless i had a legit, legal reason for preferring students over any other family status for my rental house. labelling a rental property as 'Student Rental House' could have repercussions if not planned legally; ie back in college i stayed in 'Student Housing' but it was Off-Campus Housing OWNED by the university; i've never come across 'Student Housing' rentals unless it was a frat/sorority house or one owned or officially associated with local educational institutions. would love to see a loophole in your jurisdicton that allows for independent rental unit(s) to be dedicated to specifically students. ie, u could make a strong argument that for a 2 family house, the students in one unit might seem too noisy for a quiet, sensitive elderly coulple already living right below or smack next to them - or vice versa.good luck and by the way i do like the idea of what you are doing: at least considering mixed housing although yea there could be a conflict of interest and perhaps that could be your argument for preferring students since students might party often as compared to say, elderly families i guess?

I feel for you.Last year we had a tenant who always paid rent on time but caused way too much drama with noisy visitors, unsupervised destructive children, and disregard for our property.  

Second, what is your personality type: methodical, impatient, micro/macro thinker, deal maker, hands on/off, Rogue Captan?
