So keep analyzing it to death...meanwhile, investors are investing...and making money.  

Stories for another day.I’ve been working with student complexes for some years now and recently moved back to Tampa (where I started in 2010) to work directly for an owner on his 570-bed asset.

I have a few hurdles I am trying to figure out to complete my master plan:First of all I am unsure of what I am looking to purchase; 2 bed/1bed/studio/4 unit?

I have seen the good bad and the ugly so I personally think it comes down to how it is managed especially screening the students.I know a guy making a living with just have 2 detached homes each with 4 beds + 2 beds in basement and walking away with 6k a month net.

It would be a simple cash sale.https://www.redfin.com/MD/Capitol-Heights/311-69th-Pl-20743/home/11002975https://www.redfin.com/MD/Capitol-Heights/818-Kayak-Ave-20743/home/11000844311 69th, $94k, 2 bed, 2 bath, 1408 sf, 5000 sf lot, built 1965, 0.7 mile to metro, Low Crime818 Kayak, $78k, 3 bed, 2 bath, 1384 sf, 8000 sf lot, built 1937, 1 mile to metro, Med CrimeZillow says both rent for $1700/month.

Wake up saying, go to bed saying.

My Mom died in her own home / bed thanks to my Dad's UAW pension survivor benefit.

The list price is 500k for two 1 bed 1 bath units. 

Landscaping: fill the two front beds with low maintenance shrub roses (not fancy tea roses, just the short shrubby kind that grow a few feet tall at the most and do not mind neglect), edged by creeping Juniper.

I tried to google and hit mostly inheritance taxes rather then non-death gift taxes.Thank you in advance,Sandro
