@Mark Miles that is some AWESOME advice! Thank you so much. I already reach out to a realtor in Philly because I did a Google search and found that Philly was very profitable with STR. But I also wanted to check Florida since my daughter stayed out a very lovely AirBnB she told me. I will follow your advice. Ready to get started! Thanks again.

Hi all! I’m looking to invest in my first Airbnb. I’m specifically looking in Philadelphia but I don’t know where to start. How did you find your first Airbnb if you did not already own it or live in it?  I’m not having luck on realtor.com or Zillow.  

Thanks! 

I’m in Clifton and would like to attend the meet ups as well.  Like you I’m interested in MF rentals here but not quite ready to buy but definitely ready to explore options. 

@Remington Lyman  Wow, thanks!  I'm definitely going to look into this since I live pretty close to Montclair State University.

Sounds great @Jonathan Greene!  That’s important to know.  I totally forgot about the grad students.  Thank you!  Merry Christmas!

Thank you @Marc Winter!  Makes sense.  I will definitely keep that in mind.  Happy Holidays to you and yours! 

Hi everyone!   I live near a state college and found a fixer upper for sale less than a 10 minute ride from the college.  I was wondering if anyone uses their rental property solely for college students.  There seems to be so many pros to doing this with the property I found.  Its literally a block from the main street which means its near transportation.  There is a park and a library right across the street.   Its a diverse, safe community.  Everything is in walking distance (grocery stores, coffee shops, fast food, 7-11, Blimpie, CVS, Walgreens, Tire shops, Car mechanics, gas stations, small restaurants). They could even ride their bike to the school because there are safe bike trails.  So I guess my question really is, has anyone found success in doing this?   

Thanks!

I missed the meet-up but would love to check out the next one.  I'm in Clifton, NJ.  

@Andrew Postell  Thanks!  I actually joined a couple of groups with the Meetup App and have a few events coming up in January that I am looking forward to.  I haven't tried the State forum yet but I will, thanks for the reminder!

@Jaron Walling that’s a good idea! If I find out who the seller is, I can do the same. I feel lucky to be able to see the rehab from start to finish.
