Anyway, I graduated from Old Dominion University with a B.s. in Finance back in 2017, and that was really my first introduction to the idea of REI.

Warm 'em up with a joke, if it helps, but keep the focus on them and their problems. 

Acquires a new one via capital injection annually, and with the pyramiding, after 20yrs of this will be siting on a nice holdings that is planned to fund kids university tuitions via rents at that time, which around yr17 we will start deploying into assets with more of that cash-flow focus. 

Before the pandemic, Magnolia alone (not including Baylor University or any other Waco attractions) was drawing in 10,000 tourists a week to Waco and a total of 1 million tourists a year.

I still have a warm and fuzzy feeling about my investment in my education so far due to the shared experiences and comments by others who have met Eddie Speed in this thread.

I graduated from the University of Utah.

Especially in the zip codes @Stuart Udis mentioned above, and around Temple University. 

For your first multi-family property, focus on areas with strong rental demand but lower prices, like cities with job growth or near universities.

Maybe there's military nearby or hospitals or universities?
