I'm a 22 year college student trying to get my first deal.

If my dad won’t co-sign as he has already done so for my older sister and since I am self employed and a student I can’t qualify for one completely on my own.

Candidate #1:Assault - 2001 - Omitted from application (only discovered on background check)Low credit score likely due to large student loan, all other loans seem to be current and paid on time for the most part.Candidate #2:Assault-2011 (19 at the time) was disclosed on inital screening formHaven't completed background check yet so no further details on why the low credit score.

I recently gave up a dream job traveling the world as a snowboard instructor because my student debt was getting out of control.

If you have a 200-300k budget you could buy a 4/2 or bigger house in Ewing or Pennington near TCNJ or RIDER and rent spare bedrooms to working professionals (bank of America, Glaxo Smith Kline, etc) or mature graduate students for $700-900/month and have it pay for the house.

Hi everyone,Closed on my first student rental property a couple months ago.

I also have a 28k student loan which has a rate of %2.5 but I can not write it off my taxes due to my income. 

and is currently a student.

I am stashing up cash (pre tax) for my first deal but now i am having a second thought and wondering if I should :1) pay the tax and use the remainder towards my student loan2) move the cash into my self directed  retirement account and  fund my 1st deal out of it (to defer  and lower my tax liability)3) take the tax hit now and use the remainder to fund my 1st dealThanks in advance.
