Summary
We talk about how he has teamed up with the university sports teams, to rent rooms to student-athletes.
When the current students graduate they pass their room down to younger students on the team. This makes his property management easier and eliminates the need for him to market the property.
We also talk about how he screens his tenants with no rental history or credit score, and other issues he faces renting to students.
