I'm a property manager and I absolutely refuse to work with cosigners (except for full-time college students).

We are currently thinking about and researching student housing opportunities.

I've rented a SFH to students at PNWU for 10 years.

@Sandra Ho, It sounds like you are talking about late payments on their credit report for things like credit cards, car payments, student loans, etc.

The safety is descent and the tenant pool tends to be a mix of young professionals, families, and students.

College students may appreciate a quiet study area or a place to visit with guests while their roommate studies in the apartment.Maybe there's a need for a coffee shop or other small business that needs very little room but also provides a service your tenants would be interested in?

They also have ammenties you might not like: pools, gyms, WFH areas, etc.Then you have areas like temple that area not renting well because of the surrounding location of university and lower demand for students to live there. 

They have taken strides to pave the way for ADUs - here’s the implications for real estate investors.It's crucial to understand Raleigh’s zoning rules for ADUs BEFORE deciding to implement this strategy on your current or future long term rental, Airbnb, student housing, MTR, house hack, flip, etc.

In that case, reaching out to the office of student housing at the college or posting your listing on Facebook pages that are created for student housing searches for that college can be a good marketing strategy.

Some who are the coaches and many students.
