Welcome June
Summer is here! With graduation season behind us, it's time to enjoy the longer days and warmer weather.
For those with graduates heading off to college at the end of summer or starting their post-college journey, it's an excellent time to explore the real estate market where they will be living with them and assess their potential to invest. Did you know that your 18-year-old or college graduate may qualify for specific loan programs as a first-time homebuyer or a newcomer to the job market? It's never too early to start exploring real estate investment options for your graduates! See example below.
Enjoy these long summer days!

Let's talk student housing! |
| As rent prices soar around colleges and demand remains high, securing a place to live can be both stressful and costly. Have you ever thought about this transition as an investment opportunity for yourself or a chance for your student to embark on their first home purchase?
Consider this 8-bedroom home near the University of Washington, which rents for approximately $8000/month or more. For an investor putting 25% down, the rent could cover the mortgage. Compared to the average campus housing cost of $1200/year, a student residing in this home would not only save money but also invest in an asset that has appreciated by 20% over the last 4 years.
Regardless of where your student is headed for school or their new career, I can connect you with a local COMPASS agent and introduce you to my preferred lender at Origin Point. Together, you can explore financing scenarios to set your student on the path to real estate investing.
Understanding your options is always beneficial, and for those with students paying out-of-state tuition, investing in local real estate may even help reduce tuition costs by establishing residency! |
