I'm a RD student and there are great attributes to the program, but my advice is educate yourself as much for free.

If the entertainment center has even a little value (lets say to a college student moving into a shared house for the first time),  offer it for free and they'll pick it up. 

I'm a student but am looking forward into getting in that business.

I love to teach new to advanced students to comp, negotiate, plan their rehabs in detail and more.I've been meaning to join Bigger pockets for a long time now after meting Brandon Turner a couple times, including at a Best of Event that we were speaking at back to back at our local REA meeting.My goal is to add to my team both inside and outside of Kitsap county to accelerate the pace at which I can get deals done.When not training students or doing deals, I am usually snapping pictures from the sidelines of his daughters’ soccer games or off on a camping trip.

I haven't borrowed from a bank or lender in any way in over 3 years (No CCs, car payments, student loans, nothing).  

If you're looking for buy-and-hold, I know of no better values than SFR student co-housing, with many bedrooms, within biking or walking distance of Everett College/WSU at the north end of Broadway in Everett.

However, I wouldn't necessarily consider it student housing.

For students we do include the noise ordinance and penalties in the lease.

See if you can find a property (potentially a multi-family) that you can purchase, live in, and rent out the other units/ bedrooms to friends and other students.

I.E. i have student loans that i could have paid off but it would have taken all my cash.
