@Thomas MoranI think the Greenville market is a strong market with the hospital and university anchoring the economy.

I have recently graduated from Clemson University with minimal loans.

The property I'm looking at is in Kansas near a university.

I picked a duplex right next to the private university, many restaurants/bars, and a large park.

Location are in Amherst near University of Buffalo South Campus. 

Make sure your investors are accredited unless you are setting up the JV in a different way.

I currently work a J.O.B. that i enjoy where I have the choice to be paid through an Indexed Universal Life Insurance Policy or just a standard paycheck.

A quick overview of my background: I have a degree in Neuroscience from Emory University, decided writing grants all day trying to get money to fun my research wasn't for me, so I continued bartending after college and freelancing in the Atlanta film industry.

You could package up and sell off properties to other investors and place your funds into some passive syndication deals (accredited investor status may be required), and in doing so you would get a lot of your free time back, less headaches but also lose that control that you currently have.

Also, with the university being such a major component of rentals, how is the market for non-students been?
