I get what he's saying, and it makes lots of sense, to a certain degree.

A little about myself:I graduated from Michigan State University in the spring of 2016 with a degree in Supply Chain Management.

I have an Architectural Engineering degree from the University of Miami, and I currently work in Manhattan as a project manager for a construction management firm, building high rises.

@Mathias Bekele Yeah, you definitely want to know with some degree of certainty what the house will appraise for after repairs in case you need to refinance.

Another angle is to offer 8-9 month leases for undergraduates during the months they're actually present and in school, and charge graduate students a monthly premium for a 3-4 month lease during the summer months when they're working on their degrees.

But if I think someone is going to waste my time by having me show them 50 empty homes with no AC running in the 100+ degree Bakersfield heat only to end up not making any offers, only then I will draw the line.However, if I know a person is serious (they are prequalified already, they are eager to compare properties and submit offers, I believe they will actually perform and not waste my time, etc) then I'll sweat through my nice suit all day showing them houses!  

You're welcome.School education or time spent on the degree can be considered employment history if the work obtained is in a related field or in the similar line of work so its very possible if they were for instance studying accounting and got a job in finance to use that salary (must be full time salary) to qualify even though they are freshly on the job.If There is enough equity in the property, a salary job within the same field, a documentation of 2 year history of school int he similar field, and a qualifying credit score then you could refinance out into conventional and remove FHA monthly MI completely at that point.So the income gap or equation can be a lot easier to bridge that many would think even in this scenario where the borrower just started their job for 1 month.

I went back to school for an economics degree in 2009 because I was so fascinated with the topic.

For reference, my work will be located as far south as Miami and as far North as West Palm Beach, so there is some degree of flexibility as to where I invest. 

I think Bill handled to a large degree the questions but I will give a couple other comments and ideas.
