Hello BP, I'm new to real estate investing and curious about purchasing rental properties in smaller college towns and housing students. Being in GA, Valdosta and Macon come to mind. Any insight into renting to college students and/or these markets, in general, would be appreciated.
I own about 20 doors in Valdosta. I like that there is a college, military base, and hospital to support the economy.
I own about 8 SFH within a 1 of the college. Only 1-2 are rented to students. I don't mind students, especially when parents are backing the rent and repairs.
Reach out when you are ready to pull the trigger on a deal. I would love to help.
Tip: start interviewing and networking with property managers. They provide a wealth of knowledge about the local market.
