Cap rates around the college are tiny so you won't cash-flow much unless you're putting 25-40% down.

However, to be a pilot, you’ll need to be an officer and that requires a college degree.

I’m going to have my property available to rent soon and received and email from a parent letting me know that they are very interested in the place for their daughter who will be attending college in the area.

Yes, may be college students and those who haven't started a career may rent, but with many single family home building projects and the ease at which first time home buyers can get loan, i am just wondering renters will eventually  dwindle over time and the house owned by investors will stay vacant with loan payments due every month.Will that be the next crisis like 2008?

Hi There Everyone, I bought a rental property when my kids were born and now my oldest is going to college next year. 

They have just moved out and the house is being cleaned for the next round of college kids.

I have a triplex near the football field by Carroll College.

Now, I'm no stranger to rough areas, and that house was filled with college kids, but even then, it was rough, and I was just living there.
