Three Broke College Grads Buy House, Accidentally Grown Up

In a bold move to adulting, Cole, Stefan, and Scott, who met in high school and studied finance, pooled their pennies and purchased a $357,500 Tampa condo together. Cole said, 'We each didn't have $90,000 lying around, so splitting the down payment made it possible.' They formed an LLC, dealt with mortgages, and even rented the place to military students for $2,100 a month, sometimes chipping in to cover rent shortfalls... but hey, 'operating at a slight loss has had its tax benefits!' These financial rookies are not just buying property; they're buying a lifetime of spreadsheets and friendship! Isn't life just AMAZING?!
