I imagine there must be some way to estimate that. Can he speak to friends who graduated before him or maybe speak to his instructors who work in the area?

Why the rush to buy the house now? I don't remember. What about waiting until he is out of school and settled in a job before you buy? What if he works a few months and isn't happy in the position and you need to move to a different area?
