I personally have decided to avoid the Calgary market and have been investing on and off in the US since I was in university back in 2009.

I'm a 24 year old finance grad from Michigan State University.

I would recommend looking for investment properties in the Northeast of San Antonio (Schertz, Cibolo, Selma, Universal City, Converse) its a good area once you get situated over there. :)

I looked at a house in Framingham, MA right around the corner from Framingham State University.

I am 21 years old currently working on my bachelors degree in Finance at the Florida International University.

The town of Mansfield is home of the University of Connecticut (Uconn).

I am a new graduate from California State University, Sacramento with a bachelors in psychology.

I love the university where I work.

The area is probably a B-B+, however with a university expanding to about a mile away, and some relatively large businesses coming in about a mile away, I am hoping to see decent appreciation over the long term.I am hoping to potentially do a little BRRRR action if it appraises high enough after the small reno.

Most contracts are written with with language similar to "Seller to provide title Free and clear of all liens and encumbrances" In that case the seller pays out of the sales proceeds.
