We think the time is right to create student housing in some selected university towns.

I tell all my students to use them and have never had an issue.

As to lending, less oversight by regulators generally means violations go unchecked and tend to increase, it's human nature to act up when the teacher is out of the room.

During my search I recently found a couple of homes within a block of the local major university, The University of Texas at Arlington, student body 30,000+.

I mean why would a single first time home buyer teacher want a two story 4 thousand sq foot home for himself??

This was near a religious college and the tenant was a divinity student.

Not too much needed to be done to the property, and although this wasn't at the 2% goal for returns, it was in a great area full of young professionals and grad students (not a lot of undergrad students in this particular area) and was specifically purchased for the long haul as a rental.So far I've had to replace one water heater, have a leaking roof repaired due to combination of weather and "critters" (still need replace the drywall from the damaged albeit removed area) replace the sewer stack and 12 feet of pipe ingrown with roots, and now I've realized that at least two of the electrical meters are routed to the wrong unit.

My 3rd grade teacher always said I had a problem with comprehension. :-)I thought the flaw was in the marble itself and that was opening up the finish.

Hi, i'm new to forum and searched this topic to no availI am completing my first kids FAFSA for college student Aid.

Andrew, good point, the current tenants are students(7 students) and paying that amount but the house isn't in great shape(they also pay all the bills).
