Which Property Type Should You Invest In?
The city I chose for this assignment was College Station, Tx. I've spent the past four years attending school at Texas A&M University, so I've become familiar with a few of its properties. If I were investing, I would look into investments in off-campus apartments. Student apartment complexes are built each year because living space will ALWAYS be in demand for Texas A&M students. 50,000 students are currently enrolled in the University, but the number will continue to increase as the school funds expansion projects. Below are a few statistics from city-data.com that show why this investment has great potential value.
#1 on the list of "Top 100 cities with highest percentage of college students (pop. 50,000+)"
#1 on the list of "Top 100 cities with youngest residents (pop. 50,000+)"
#5 on the list of "Top 100 cities with shortest commuting times (pop. 50,000+)"
#15 on the list of "Top 100 cities with highest percentage of renters (pop. 50,000+)"
