I came across an interesting property on Zillow. A 6 bed 4 bath house 10 minutes away from a college, close to shopping and across the street from a park. They’re asking $2000 a month rent. And as a college student i could easily rent out bedrooms to fellow students for $450 a month and live in the property myself. Is this a bad idea? It’s zoned as a single family house, and has a mother in law basement. I would cash flow $250 if i keep it rented, and i would live for free. Thoughts?

@Nathan Willard if your a college student and assuming work part-time, would you be able to convince the landlord you by yourself can pay 2k in monthly rent in addition to your other expenses? Would the landlord allow you to rent out the rooms like that? No harm in asking and finding out.
