Advise for renting properties in heavy college areas

Hello everyone (or anyone lol) first off if this is the wrong place to post this please feel free to let me know and guide me in the right direction.

I bought my first rental property 3 years ago in my area, which is located directly next to one college and within 15 min of a university. I plan on getting more homes in the area, and or surrounding areas over the new couple years and will more then likely be renting to college kids seeing as I shouldn’t ever be short on tenants.

I’m looking for any general advise someone can give me that may have or is doing the same as myself. I apologize if this is quite vague, I’m still new at this and finally got my spark back to get back into my plan of renting. I currently am house hacking the home I own now, and have been thinking of possibly getting into a multi family home and doing the same for my next house as well. Thank you in advanced!
