Learning My Market (Illinois)

Joe Odere

Hi Everybody,

New to the site, and just finished the book on investing with no and low money down (paraphrasing the title). My main takeaway on how to start (besides just getting out there and talking to people) is to get as educated as possible, and learn as much about your market as you can.

The book mentioned some property listing sites like Zillow. Any other tips on ways to research my market (which in my case would be Chicago and Northeast Illinois) on the web?
