I put 80% furnaces in my units and upgrade to programmable digital thermostats if they are not already in place.

Also, the basement was not advertised during the time the rent ad was posted.There is also the fireplace which i did have inspected, but it received a not operable status.  

First and foremost,contact the university student housing authority to ask for their guidelines for renting to their students and advertising your rental with them.They may want a through inspection of the property,fire extinguishers installed as well as smoke and carbon monoxide alarms,and other specific items you must have to attain their endorsement.Ask them about rents that can be charged,appliances needed,and any special policies you must adhere to.
