Hello everyone, I am currently a senior in college (graduating in May) with a goal to purchase a duplex this upcoming Summer.

I've been on this platform since my college days, and I'm excited for you to start your journey!

My plan is to allow my portfolio to compound, and then after college pill up some money and start investing in real-estate.

Also, have you considered renting by the room to college students?

I'm going into my final year of college and beginning to apply for full-time positions.

Hey Everyone,I just graduated college with no debt so I want to buy my first property and House Hack with college students, I found a property currently selling for $175,000 dollars, but I think It can be negotiated to a lower purchase price since it is a little outdated and the other houses in that same street have sold for less money, although it is outdated it could be rented for $550 dollars a month + utilities  and since it is a 4 bed, 2 baths; renting out the other 3 bedrooms while I live in one of them would help me break even with the house's monthly expenses.

I've been part of this community since my college days, and it's been helpful.

We have an investment in College Station, TX and since my wife and I attended school there we are very comfortable with areas where renters and students want to be.

The issues I ran into was the local market was already flooded with STR's and in order to be profitable you had to stand out with a home that was either near an attraction (ie great view, Garden of the Gods, Downtown, or a College) or the unit had to have amenities (Hot tub, Instagram Wall, Pickle Ball Court) that would place your listing far and above other similar listings.I think you should strongly consider if you more interested in moving away and starting a life somewhere else, or in creating a cash flowing investment to supplement your income? 

The university areas work well with college students needing places.If you ever want to talk REI let me know looking at some options in Chicago this week and Indiana.
