@Eryn GarciaInvesting in student rentals can be a lucrative strategy, but it comes with its own set of pros and cons.Pros:High Demand: College towns typically have a consistent demand for rental properties, ensuring steady occupancy rates.

The benefits on the lending side are huge--lower rates and much lower down payment requirements.

As interest rates drop, house prices will go higher.

I haven't noticed a drop in rates. 

I believe it was just a flat rate per property per month, and quite inexpensive.

My personal opinion is: once the renovation is done, property is rented and generally stabilized, I take out a fixed rate mortgage.  

We do all the work ourselves and enjoy spending the time together.

You are just as likely to have the rates climb while you wait on this subpar company as you are to get a better deal.

I have a great interest rate at 2.64%.

I'm basically looking for the following fields (or whatever I can get):- Median Sales Price- Median Rent- Vacancy Rate- 5 or 10-year Property Value Appreciation Rate- Any historical values for the above to compare against currentAny tips/bits of wisdom folks can share would be appreciated!
