I just graduated college and looking to expand my wealth at a decent pace. 

I am looking to get into the wholesale business part time while I'm in college for the next three years.

or whatever - the two sides of the coin should be merged , obviously "how many units" you want in xyz years is part of the business plan but when your weighing the costs to your personal life having the "reason" tied up right along side it is going to be golden for getting you through , so as an example - say you're coming up on the deadline in 6 months and you're 20% short - well if the focus was just on # of units you could just make some excuses and continue on as you were but if you also had, in writing the commitment to yourself that you needed those units to fund your kids college or something it puts that extra fire under you to take a closer look at whatever budget you've made and how much youre sticking to it - or hustle some overtime and start networking one more night a week or whatever.Sorry if that was a little ranty :)

Would there be more upkeeping to do on a university property because these are college kids?

I am a soon to be college graduate (December 2016) and entrepreneur.

With Kennedy King College buying land and expanding as well as BNSF Railroad, a 50 million dollar infusion from state and city funds, along with anchor stores Whole Foods, Starbucks, and Chipotle, Al and Heidi were able to secure a buyer at full list price 215k even before they had completed the rehab!

If you can cash flow positive with 10 weeks of occupancy, you have 42 weeks to use the property yourself or otherwise get creative with it (event space if large enough, AirBnB, college visit housing, game-day housing, etc.). 

I have a college degree in residential construction.

I'll have to use private lending to finance the deal and maybe use some college loan money for the repairs if necessary.

I've got college students in mine right now and interested to see how it wears over time.
