Househacking Chicago Neighborhoods
Thanks for reading - this will be my first post so excuse any strange formatting.
1. I have lived in the north suburbs of Chicago (Evanston/West Ridge) most of my life and have been wanting to start investing.
2. Based off of a few pre-approval letters, I can realistically afford a multifamily unit under 375-400k
With this in mind, I have been finding a lot of potential properties in the following neighborhoods:
Humboldt Park
Austin
Hermosa
South Lawndale (Little Village)
McKinley Park
Brighton Park
Back of the Yards
Canaryville
Does anyone have any strong opinions about any of these neighborhoods?
I've driven through most of them (minus Canaryville) but I'm not too familiar with the good/bad blocks.
