Hello, I manage a couple student houses.

@Paul BogardTo rent out multiple bedrooms in Philadelphia, understand zoning regulations, consult a knowledgeable real estate agent, hire a property manager, and consider multi-unit properties, student housing, and co-living spaces.

To maximize cash flow, find suitable properties, analyze numbers, and focus on student-friendly amenities.

I've also used college students for this. 

I would urge great caution when choosing neighborhoods and even blocks to invest in as things can go uphill or downhill very quickly.

I have no clue what the heck your going on about with "syndicator boot camps", Nobody I know does anything even remotely close to such, nor would they, there not going to hand away there "secret sauce" and vs what they make as an active syndicator, they'd have to charge minimum $40k per student to make it remotely worth there time. 

Whenever I speak to a group of students interested in real estate, I always stress the importance of networking and simply asking people to coffee.

@Richard PastorI would urge you to get a commitment from a lender on a heloc BEFORE going down this path.

I am an international student still in the education phase.

The thing that scares me the most about Bitcoin and other crypto currencies is that it's like debating a college student that's just finished reading Karl Marx.
