Not because so much because of the student tenant pool  (which can be a bonus), but because of the permanence of cultural depth they add to a community.Account Closed  Nice graphs.  

If you'd like to go more in depth about the two of these products I can share my overall experiences with both.

 We definitely go with a vanity (have even found a 15" depth one that fits in tiny bathrooms).  

I prefer SFRs with no HOA too ... higher buy in cost, but generally better appreciation & tenant class, more control, more "value add" possibilities (try doing an addition on a condo :)), and no unpredictable HOA fees or assessments to eat into my cash flow.So, though some think that all that buy RE in CA for appreciation are crazy gamblers, and many in fact are, I myself am incredibly conservative, because of my multiple exit strategies believe that what I am doing is NOT gambling, and have the consistent long term track record of profits (in BOTH appreciation AND long term cash flow) to back it up.

That is worth more than 1 guys in depth view on investing.  

@Carl Millsap Thank you for the in depth response Carl.

Also you can look me up on there and I can send you an invite or pm me if you want more in depth conversation about each of them.

But it feels a lot like gambling to me, and I'm a terrible gambler. :)I hope you'll take this in the spirit intended, but it sounds like you are trying to keep all your options open.

I could put you in contact with an experienced architect in the Chicago area if you'd like a more in-depth explanation on the topic specific to my area.

If you connect with me I can share the name of someone who can help you understand this in more depth.
