The ability for a (cop) car to speed by your house is a good thing.Between City College and executive airport is not too bad.

I want to have as little debt as possible while going through college, and I want that to be due to investing.  

During my hiatus from the BP site I enrolled back in college to pursue my Masters in Environmental Engineering and got married just a little over a year ago.

I aspire to be able to use real estate investing to pay for my son's college and eventually quit my job to invest full time!

Mark my words, your internal world controls your destiny and will lead you to success, not the external elements.

@John Coleman We all learn from those that disagree, well stated.I think that if you take a look at College Heights, East Lynn Addition, Sherwood Forest & Nicholtown (now Eastover) The evidence would surely lend itself to the idea that the growth rate in Greenville coupled with the national urbanization trend will see these areas be gentrified within the next 18-24 months.

Missoula is a great area and has a constant stream of renters with UofM and Missoula College!

The numbers worked and after a lot of internal debate, I had to logic myself into a decision: If I bought these 2, I was going to eventually refi and use that money to buy more SFHs anyway BUT the price on these 6 as a package was way better than I'd get in another year on an individual SFH.I was getting a Costco-sized discount for buying in bulk and instead of shying away from the chance, I pooled together the money from friends, family, a HELOC, etc. and went for it.

My goal is to rent it out by this summer and purchase another property and do house hacking in a college area. 

For example, I am selling a condo near Los Angeles because the Sellers want to use the money to help pay for baby #2 and having a night nanny and start a college fund.
