FYI, You should be aware that it is a federal crime to knowingly harbor an illegal immigrant, pursuant to 8 USC title 1324 (A)(III)"Any person who - knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, conceals, harbors, or shields from detection, or attempts to conceal, harbor, or shield from detection, such alien in any place, including any building or any means of transportation;"

Currently my wife works in higher education and I work in transportation logistics.Our plan is to start off with doing wholesaling and flipping.

Disney offers a huge amount of packages where families can stay on property and have transportation, park tickets etc. etc. all included.

That wealth, proximity to chicago and cross-continental transportation routes, and a cheap student work force brings industry to town which for the most part has stuck around throughout the years.

On top of that you have the added inconvenience of needing transportation (another cost) just to get there and it ends up taking more of your time up just to get a shirt washed.So I still think that even with tenants having to pay to do laundry per load, it's still an added convenience that should increase how attractive your property is to tenants.

This is why it is important to purchase in the right location - Education, Amenities, Employment, Transportation, are within reach.  

side, For STR, I would personally look around the university (MTSU) area (graduations, games, weddings, etc), or the Medical Center Pkwy area (transportation to Nashville, corporate Nissan/Amazon, medical personnel. 

Hi Ravi - while it'd be helpful to know more, like the others have said, I can tell you a bit about the downtown housing market and if you're looking for something in the greater Hartford, you'll have to give us more detail :) The downtown residential market is at 98% occupied and there's a lot of activity which suggests positive growth and more bodies on the street between the new public transportation system, two university moves into the central business district, the development of Downtown North with the new baseball team...the Yard Goats...please don't hold that against us, and a lot more residential units coming online in the next year - which is actually a positive for those people considering investing in residential because in urban environments like Hartford, residential markets follow an odd trend where the greater the supply of housing, the more greater the demand.

Never got an offer accepted, but I like those areas due to proximity to NYC and public transportation.

It is close to the public transportation, and it is 5 mins away from 2 major highways.3.
