Common questions from parents

View all FAQs →
Should I buy a house or condo for my student instead of paying rent?+

Compare the same holding period, financing, taxes, insurance, HOA, maintenance, transaction costs and realistic roommate contributions. Buying is not automatically less expensive than renting.

How does financing a home for my college student work?+

Loan structure depends on the borrowers, occupancy, property and program. Keep the selected home and assumptions attached when you speak with a licensed loan officer.

Can my student have roommates?+

Roommate contributions may change the family budget, but lease rules, HOA restrictions, insurance and lender treatment should be verified before relying on that income.

What happens to the property after graduation?+

Evaluate selling, keeping the home as a rental, refinancing where appropriate, or using it for another family member. The exit plan belongs in the original purchase decision.
