I am really interested in Real Estate but I am about to start my sophomore year at Purdue University and I want to know if it is feasible or even possible for me to start investing in real estate, when I have no credit, an internship as a job, and go to school almost 2 and a half hours away from my hometown.

Just that what you are saying is not a universal rule for all investors.Sophisticated investors do invest in high-value markets.

They are building a lot of on campus housing, but universities are rarely able to keep up with that demand.

I pull a lot of my information from the Bureau of Economic and Business Research at the University of Florida.

Background:I just purchased a rental property 2 blocks from a university and notified the student tenants I was increase rent and making them pay utilities (driven by market comps) in the new lease.

I hope by investing in their future, I will somehow get paid back.  529 has a lower yield than universal life insurance plan. 

They also have "university" sites with lots of information to peruse.

Thank you for the warm welcome.  

I liked the Converse/Universal City suburbs myself for rentals.  

It is located on one of the main streets of Lexington KY walking distance to the University of Kentucky and the Arboretum.
