Amenities means public transportation availability, parks, school reputation, and shopping centers could get you more rent and sales price.Another thing that could effect rent and sells price is the neighberhood it's in.  

I am graduating Law School in four months and looking to get into Real Estate investing by purchasing a 2-4 unit building; living in one unit and renting out the others. 

I'm currently in school to become an agent in the state of South Carolina.

This area is near the schools, which helps.

Also the rental rates here are getting out of hand and people are looking at Celina, and Gunter as an affordable second choice if schools are not the issue.  

After reading some books, listening to a dozen podcasts (and counting), and talking with the BP community I have finally brought myself to take the next step in my education--attending a REIA.Im making an hour 10min trip after work(on a school night, God forbid) to go to this REIA.

Congratulations on finishing school for Pharmacy!

yup, turned out for the best though, got a much nicer property and far better school district!

Strong schools nearby, 20m to downtown Tampa, However, according to BestPlaces.net, the crime rate is very high.

I was also very surprised to learn of a five-star restaurant that was established by Washburn school called Sania!
