Then build up a good history of payment pay-down. 

Hey @Mihir Bhimaraju , thanks for jumping in.The area is actually just to the east of Devington, between Arlington Community High School, E 46th and Shadeland.

If, however, you are near a grade school, in suburbia, etc. then maybe not so much... 

I worked for a local general contractor in high school and college.

Take a few years off, chase your passions and your dreams, hustle, make money, prove haters wrong, and if all else fails, school will still be there.Hope this helps, and all the best.Happy Hustling.

Up until my junior year in high school, with a couple of exceptions, I would consider my childhood "normal."

I'm investing in Ohio currently (cleveland/columbus) as I like the economics of both cities and overall population trends, jobs, and economic engines like schools, hospitals etc.  

Worst case scenario a large amount of savings and a good work history might get you in the door (also assuming the rest of their screening comes back good) rent for a bit, then get mortgage for home.

Meanwhile highest student population is in University of Toronto in which me and my partner will focus rental properties nearby schools. 

There are a number of reasons for this, chief among them, the water and sewer systems are built for a certain population, so are the schools, roads etc.
