Question about investing in Chicago

[Levi Jones]

First post on BP, I'm looking for  a push in the right direction in terms of how to get a small mortgage for primary residence(or investment) in Chicago(where property can be really cheap). I currently own a two flat which I have a mortgage for. I've read that I could obtain a second fha loan but I was wondering are there any no money  down or collateral only loans I could get to help with the acquisition of a cheap property? There's a lot of good deals and I'm trying to grab one before it slips out my hands.
