Already, it's pushed out-of-town investors to focus on student housing where GC has less of an impact.

However, I do not know who this could be beyond a property manager which would not work in my case since I am looking to self manage for both tax (material participation in STR loophole) and profitability reasons. 

I am also wondering about if students make good tenants? 

@Steve CrispIf you meet the material participation guidelines and qualify for the short term rental loophole you should get a free cost segregation estimate to see how much you would benefit from the accelerated depreciation. 

Quote from @Robert Gunn: I would also be very interested in hearing student or JV experiences with Pete and his program.I stumbled upon him by chance and for fun (I've been investing in land for years) signed up for his "free" course, which he promises after he pitches his $499/mo software system (which is basically an overpriced CRM) and then after the first "Level" in the course, you are directed to a pay page to access the rest of the "free" course.  

I will be participating in the webinar this Saturday to learn about the platform.

Quote from @Gabi NA: Hi, I am a 20 year old college student looking to buy properties with the goal of either turning them into Airbnb short-term rentals or long-term rental properties.

However, as W2 earners, these losses are considered passive and can only offset passive income unless you or your spouse qualify as a Real Estate Professional (REPS) by meeting the 750-hour and material participation requirements or STR is used.

While Im not currently seeking distributions (we are in series B shares - those that participate in the upside and "may" accrue), they have made distributions and we are simply building another cash reserve.
