Hey Carl, we have some opportunities for multifamily properties that fit this bill exactly.  

The area between downtown Charleston and Park Circke is known as "The Neck".  It is still a low income area that is up and coming and is becoming more desirable for it's proximity to the aforementioned areas.   It has gained some value as properties have been rehabbed or new construction has been built, but there is still a long way to go and a lot of equity to be gained.   The zip code is traditionally 29405 and the area runs between King St & Meeting St all the way up to Park Circle at Montage St.  

I'd love to talk more about it and show you some opportunities.   Let's connect and we can go take a look at the area and properties.

Purchasing a property for your child while they attend college can be a strategic investment and a great way to provide them with stable housing. Here is a comprehensive guide to help out-of-town parents navigate the process effectively.

1. Determine Your Budget

  • Set a Realistic Budget: Consider the cost of tuition, living expenses, and your financial situation.
  • Mortgage vs. Cash Payment: Decide whether you'll finance the purchase or pay in full.
  • Future Resale Value: Factor in potential appreciation of the property.

2. Choose the Right Location

  • Proximity to Campus: Prioritize properties within walking or biking distance to minimize transportation costs.
  • Safety and Security: Research neighborhood crime rates and local security measures.
  • Access to Amenities: Look for nearby grocery stores, healthcare facilities, and entertainment options.

3. Property Type Considerations

  • Single-Family Home vs. Condo: Condos may offer maintenance benefits, while homes provide more control.
  • Size and Layout: Ensure the property accommodates your child’s needs and potential roommates.
  • HOA Fees and Rules: If considering a condo, check for restrictions that may impact student living.

4. Financing Options

  • Parent Loan Options: Consider home equity loans, investment property mortgages, or co-signing a loan.
  • Tax Implications: Speak with a financial advisor about potential deductions and capital gains.
  • Rental Income Potential: Explore the option of renting out extra rooms to offset costs.

5. Working with Real Estate Professionals

  • Local Real Estate Agent: Choose an agent experienced in student housing.
  • Property Management Services: Consider hiring a property manager if you’re not local.
  • Inspection and Appraisal: Conduct thorough due diligence to avoid costly repairs.

6. Maintenance and Upkeep

  • Regular Inspections: Schedule periodic property inspections to address maintenance issues.
  • Emergency Repairs: Have a plan in place for unexpected maintenance needs.
  • Furnishing the Property: Budget for necessary furnishings and appliances.

7. Exit Strategy

  • Resale Planning: Research market trends for optimal selling timing.
  • Long-Term Investment: Consider retaining the property as a rental post-graduation.
  • Marketability: Choose a property with appeal to future students or young professionals.

By following these steps, you can make a well-informed decision and ensure a successful investment that benefits both you and your student during their college years and beyond.
