Gets the job done!

What exactly is an outside courner lot? Any good buys near RPI? My kid is graduate school there with a lease through August...

Hi Debbie,

To picture an outside corner lot think of a square and then picture a home sitting on the outside corner of the square. It's very private (road doesn't continue along the side of the house) and gives you a ton of yard space!

There are a lot of great buys in the RPI area. If your son is thinking of investing in Real Estate, it's a great time. Well managed college rentals will bring income for years to come and with prices in the area being down there won't be a better time for him to make this investment. Plus, if he's buying to live there after his lease is up he will qualify for owner occupied financing! Give me a call, I would love to help him out and of course, send you a referral. 518-209-6447

We will make a decision closer to summer about whether he is going to buy or rent an apartment. He pays $650 month for an apartment with all utilities from RPI. He earns $18000/year and should qualify for ~$85000- -$95000 home (depending on taxes, insurance and HOA). He was intrigued with the idea last summer. I will talk him out over the break. He would need something where he could share with his friends and perhaps convert to a rental after he graduates. It must be within easy walking distance to RPI because he doesn't drive.

The rent RPI charges for the 3 bedroom apartment is excessive. Jon will not be in Troy until late January when classes resume. If he decides to purchase a home I will come out to help him with the decision. I also went to school at RPI and remember many of the house being very old and not is very good shape. Jon is a mathematician and knows nothing about home maintenance. This could come to nothing but I would like to know what is possible.

Have a good Christmas.
