I am under contract for a 3 family home w a very unique set up. 2- 1 bedroom apartments and 3 and 4th duplex which has 5 bedrooms but only 1 bathroom this home is 8 min from Brown University in RI and 10 min from Johnson Wales. (6miles)Do u think its close enough to attract college students especially the duplex? 

Setting up the listing really wasn't that difficult.

I’ll shoot you a message so we can set up a time to chat!

In general, run the numbers, dream of exactly what you want, and build a plan so you're aiming at the target you set in front of you.

If you can't do that, they make boxes you can put over the themostats in your tenants apartment, you can set it to room temperature and lock the box. 

Set your boundaries in advance, and if the deal doesn’t meet your criteria, politely bow out.

If you consider Pittsburgh in the future I'm happy to talk about the market and help you get set up. 

For me, what was talked about above is nowhere near close enough for me to judge or provide an opinion on someone as just because someone changes their name (we have done it several times for different entities) or someone could be co-gp or LP in a deal but not in the limelight) does not immediately set off my radar of "omg this person is not legit or a scam artist". 

We take a consultative approach to make sure we’re setting up our investors for success from the beginning.

if you buy a random property on Zillow and turn it over to people you have never met, you will very likely lose money, get frustrated, and set yourself back.if you're serious i'd pick a market and plan on making several trips there.
