I deal with all students so I prefer year long leases.

As a med student i had no income. 

I'm a 63 year old doctor and a student of BP and RE investing but little practice.

What areas are students most interested in?

The next may be one of the largest debt sectors in our economy - student loans (who would have thought!).  

You would need that money in your possession and seasoned for 2-3 months before you can even apply.  

Obviously, there are complications in this too, as students can, at times, be destructive to a property; however, I doubt they would steal the copper piping or do anything deleterious to that extent (you never know, though). 

I typically ignore student loan and/or medical late payments.As long as they aren't delinquent a lot, can afford the place (with verifiable income), have good landlord reference(s) (aren't needy, paid on time, or paid late fees if they were late and didn't destroy the property) and don't have any evictions, then they're good.If the first guy qualifies, let him know, set up a date to get the lease signed and then mail the old guy his fee back since you didn't process it.

@Natalie Vane I don't think I would qualify for a home loan on my own because I only work part-time right now and have about 30k in student loans.

Interested in connecting with folks with experience in student housing development, especially in Ohio and Oxford/Miami University...
