Chicago 2 flats, berwyn, forest park, hermosa and ? advise please

[Dan S.]

Hi Chicago area investors. Please share your experience and insight! I'd like to get a 2-3 flat near where I live (Oak Park IL)

I have cash can wait till winter & looking at maybe REO foreclosure, Fixer, util off.

I am holding out for 140 for a 2 flat,  or under 200 for a 3 flat

Where should I look? 

Working class, not too much crime. 

I'd like to do this on Berwyn, Forest park, elmwood park, north riverside, Hermosa

Where else should I look? Cicero?

I live in oak park, and work a 9-5 so I dont want to get a place too far away
