In each case, the clients invested in areas where the tenants were primarily medical or law students in the city/urban area; the square footage is small which contains rehab costs and the draw is location and amenities.

The return is $9000 per month if all are rented out to students or they can be sold at $230,000 according to comps in the area. 

You have $30k in the bank (is there student loan debt?).....

I am a 20 year old college student and I’ve seen the power of real estate investing.

I also have a 24k student loan, so I have been trying to think other real estate options to gain capital, flipping sounds like a good approach but I don't have any the skills do do it myself at the moment. 

@Kevin Enderle Almost 100% of my 50+unit portfolio are student rentals and not allowing pets is totally swimming upstream. 

I am not sure why Discover would have declined the approval, but I know that many smaller banks also offer great student cards that have very low credit limits ($2,000 or less).

I also like one of his former students, his name is Fritz Joseph.If you are a Carrot.com website customer they also have a FB course. 

This zone, while still somewhat sketchy, enjoys some relative quiet and safety as a result, and is more attractive to the university students compared to buildings outside of the zone.

There are a few types of tenants (short term rentals, contract workers, students, etc) that will prefer a furnished rental.
