The property is on Pawling Ave just north of the Emma Willard School.  

They were not the usual suspects...moms carrying babies, retirees, young couples just out of college (some still in high school I think!)

I will also add that some of the surrounding Austin areas have great schools(Cedar Park, parts of Round Rock, and many others). which will be desirable to quality renters. 

I went to school at EIU, students had places they wanted to rent, even though it might have been a little farther away.Then honestly compare the different units AND their layouts.An awkward layout can kill people wanting to rent a place.What is your competitive advantage compared to the other local rentals?

My main parameters for LA and around LA is decent school zones and above average income, but this houses come with a high price tag that kills your cash flow (unless a good deal is found and there's always a good deal somewhere).Thanks everyone for your input, please feel free to message me suggestions and send friend requests

Pasadena has basically two sides, but are both attractive because of the schools.

Met with one contractor the is actually being a high school friend, but we haven't seen each other for years.

My new niche is 2B/2B garden style condo within a good school district, low crime, great community amenities and finally, cash flowing properties.

It's not the greatest area, but they are starting to do some developing, and opened a big medical school there a few years ago.  

The GR public schools are not great though.
