I definitely echo your sentiment in that people need to be open to seeing that mortgages are not hocus pocus interest loaded loans.    

@Rochelle WilkinsonI must STRONGLY echo the sentiment of several other people here:  GET A LAWYER to help you with this!!

I usually see that sentiment from agents who want to discourage wholesalers from starting but I haven't seen/heard any legislation passing in regards to that.

Yes, that's absolutely how I feel, despite your wording in such a way as to try to make me look bad for admitting it.I'm pretty sure if I put MY words to that same sentiment, many/most people would agree with me.  

My sentiment is, yeah, kinda not really. 

I tend to agree with his sentiment that it is unlikely that a court of law, or government agency would construe the internet rantings of people as the practice of law.

- Thanks for the invite to the conversation.We rent to a fair number of foreign students - some by the room, some as apartments.I will re-iterate the sentiment already expressed that we have very little trouble or any sort with our foreign students - we had one who left suddenly and owed us rent.

If I hold on to the properties long term, out of sentimentality or risk aversion, I am betting on appreciation.

I'm not the kind to be sentimental about the house without making some business sense. 

I can echo the sentiments above about the wear and tear of student housing.
