True in all professional services, law, accounting, RE, medical, stock brokers, engineers, etc.

They do have some in "Snow Emergencies" but it has to be pretty bad for that to happen from what I have heard.Now if the comps used to get the ARV included ones that DID have off street parking and an adjustment was not made THAT would be a problem.

First Property:(2nd will be separate post and for your sake probably not as lengthy*This 3/1/1 within 3 miles of San Antonio's huge Medical Center is one of the few true hybrids I come across.

My thoughts are that I will figure out a good rent amount and take out a loan against it that will still allow 2-300 in cash-flow after payment and put that away until I have 6 months reserves to have in case of emergency.

Medical clinics and hospitals may make family quarters available during terms of treatment.Who, what, when, where needs to be the question in looking at needs of customers, identify these aspects in your area and you'll likely discover a niche either that is not served or underserved

This is not an exclusive list of market options, but it can stimulate some new ideas.Find markets that have good rent-to-value rations (i.e. 1.0% or more).Last but not least, if you primary goal is cash-flow but you'd like some appreciation potential, then focus on growth or emerging markets.Again, I will stress to avoid "war zones".Feel free to post any other questions.Continued success!

I purchased/rehab my bmore property near john hopkins medical campus (Near the revitalization effort) for 40k, and I rent for 975 for market rent.

The property is located in Chicago in the Medical District.

@Joseph Wu,The real estate business is similar to the medical profession.

It sounds like a technical position in the medical field or something :)It's awesome to see you got your first home so early in life.
