Talk to local agents and investors!

@James Anderson, as a licensed real estate agent, it's pretty straightforward, and I assume my take will be similar to that of other agents. 

@Olivia Melikian Finding the right agent to work with is important.

My wife and I are real estate investors based in Katy, and I/we are looking to connect with local investors, real estate agents, property managers, and contractors in the area.

The agent discourages you from visiting.This is a major red flag.

As a college student landlord you may have interaction with parents & if they find you unprofessional that may raise red flags, but if you have your s**t together you can ease those concerns.I am a big fan of college rentals.
