I've been active in both markets since 2010.

It's not investing, it's active income and it's hard work.

@Zk LaniMain questions my company looks for: (FYI we don't lend in SC so this is for information purposes and not promotion)This is for a 100% HM loan that covers both purchase and repairs for new or experienced investors with low document requirements.Before you have a property targeted:1) Bank statements showing roughly 10% of the loan total on hand.

As far as I can tell, from calls to Campus Life to asking the local REIA, there's no Off-Campus Housing info site at this college, no active roommate or rental housing listing on Facebook or Instagram.Has anybody ever started a Facebook group specifically for local student rental listings?

ADR and Occupancy rates are more of an art than a science, but using sites like AirDNA are great places to start and then verify thru local property management or just good old fashioned research on Airbnb and VRBO for active rentals in the area.  

It's a combination of number of posts, number of votes for those posts, and weighted differently for threads started vs comments on other people's threads.And it only looks at the last few weeks of activity, which is why some people with fewer posts and votes show up.

I am active duty enlisted Air Force, e4 making 3200ish a month.

A lot of it will depend on what business activities you will do, i.e. buy and hold rentals vs. flipping.

Look into taking advantage of the Military Tuition Assistance Program while you are on Active Duty.

I tried to be pro-active and have them check ahead of time, but they don't do that.
