It is mid year and this tenants mom (co-signer) wrote the following note;I am writing to formally request the early termination of my child's lease at location in San Jose due to a medical illness that renders him unable to continue attending college.

I'm curious to hear how other property managers and landlords are navigating this.Here in College Station, TX, I don't accept Section 8 applicants.

We do long-term rentals and practice BRRRR on every deal. 

I don't think the LVP will feel right with carpet underneath and it's not a sound installation practice to have that buffer layer there.

I'm a realtor, investor and own a construction company located in College Station, Tx.

This is assuming you haven't already done this during college (summer job or working part time)I would go where I can get a job in a commercial real estate firm. 

Quote from @John Lee: Hi all,My name is John and I'm a recent college grad about to start a Masters (SF/San Jose Area home base in California).

Investors should practice empathy, actively listen to the homeowners' concerns, and present solutions that address their needs.

Educate yourself with resources like The House Hacking Strategy and practice analyzing deals using tools like BiggerPockets calculators.

A friend from college did that starting in 2008.
