Here are the details on the photo:- High resolution (preferably RAW format, or a JPEG with nice white balance)- Very narrow depth of field- Neutral background, outdoors is okay - Wide angle, with lots of neutral space to the left of the subject- A real estate theme, of course- Well lit, sharp focus- Permission to use the likeness of the subject- With subject individual set off-center to the right of the pic, between 75% & 100% (See 2nd photo down on this page for the placement we're looking for.)The person who submits the winning photo (if any) will get a free copy of the BiggerPockets Summit 2012 Audio and the fame of being on the front page of BP!

As for power poles, if they're large hydroelectric lines, I'd definitely be concerned because of the electro magnetic field.

I am trying to get started in the real estate investing business in the Central Virginia area, and would appreciate any advice from those of you in this field.

The only type of college student to target for your tenant, IMO, is just like what Brian Hoyt mentioned - grad student in some rigorous field.

If they work in the financial field, it's possible that stiffing you in the future means they lose employment, so that alone could be a big stick for you.

I know I have hired quite a few college grads – but not for work in the field they studied......Spencer – just curious.
