Looking to get my feet wet in my first property, looking primarily for Multi-Family or single families near NJ college campuses to rent to students.

Hi everyone, Currently doing an adding value project and need to find a reliable Architect to help with permits, Does anyone have any recommendations?

Other potential requirements are size (10'X10' as one example), having a closet, having heating to the room, having proper electrical outlets in the room, etc.Look up your local municipality building codes to ensure you have it as a legal room with permits so it can be added to the assessed details/title.

Purchase price: $5,350,000 Cash invested: $800,000 This was a college campus.

Laws can change though If you have an existing permit prior you are often grandfathered in- so it makes sense to get the permit even if you are on the fence.

I am interested in purchasing a single family home to live in for my junior and senior year at college, and then use it as a rental after moving to a larger city for a job.

Recently graduated college and will be starting work soon, so soon after I will be in position to purchase a property.

Where my wife and I settled, given our loans coming out of college (and in hindsight they were extremely low interest: 2% on federal, about 3.5% on private, with one small one carrying about 6%, I believe) was to take roughly half of our left over take home and pay down loans, and the rest goes into savings/investments.  

Hey y'all, I am currently a nursing student interested in purchasing a single family home to live in for the next 5 semesters of college until graduation.

Say I find a good deal move in next year and live there for a year or 2... what happens then, do i just keep the property and rent it to other college students?
