I’m also a Southern California resident, currently a graduate student at UCLA, but looking to begin investing into real estate in Indianapolis once I make the move out there.

Unfortunately jobs for college graduates are very limited due to the university being there and churning out so many new graduates every year. 

@Eliu RosarioI haven't come across someone self employed but I had a similar situation with a graduate student who is staying at one of my units and planned to pay using refund check funds.

@Dawn Vacek I have not began to work with a broker yet since I don't plan to purchase until this summer once I graduate.  

We have investment money that we could use to help but would prefer to keep that minimal if possible.We live in Columbia, MO and there are 3 college campuses here with several renowned graduate programs so we feel like the rental opportunities would be strong.What can he do?

I am 57 years old married with two kids graduated from college.

At year 10, he is paying 25% more than his beginning rate.Seems someone influenced his thinking, he doesn't seem unreasonable or sophisticated and no you aren't being greedy I'd say.The real issue is the graduation of increases, any lag time in paying is simply an present value determination of amounts he lags behind in paying and it being made up in later years.Maybe said another way, if you want 700 a month and want to pay 500, loan him the 200, charge him interest on it and set his payments off on paying that into the future, when he then pays the current rent plus he begins paying for the amounts he was loaned.I don't like hitting a seller up with options in an offer, this or that or that, but in a long term lease with a tenant who is in there, you can give options, pay it this way or pay it this way or that way, each yield about the same thing to you but the differences can be in cash expended, loaded in the front, the back end or annuitized evenly over the term.Be careful in setting caps and accruals as he can get hit with what I'd say would be significant increases.

Economists at the time estimated that some 80% of builders and developers went out of business resulting in a virtual stall in housing starts which lasted almost five years.While housing starts stalled, people kept graduating college, getting married and looking for places to start their family.

Im 16 years old and on the verge of graduating the 10th grade.

I would assume that Northern Liberties, Fishtown, Fairmount, Graduate Hospital, Queens Village, Bella Vista, Poweltown, and Cedar Park fall into the A Class.
