New Member in Chicago

[Brian Medansky]

Hey Everyone! Excited to finally join the community. I've been catching up on the BP Podcast and reading articles, and now I know that Real Estate is definitely where I want to be investing. I am 25, originally from the northern Chicago suburbs, and will be moving back home in about a week.

After a lot of reading/listening, I have "decided" that I want my first investment to be a house hack on the north side of Chicago, ideally in Lakeview/Wicker Park/Logan Square/Bucktown areas, but I'm open to other neighborhoods. 

If anyone has any advice they can offer on where to start or anything in general, I'd be eternally grateful.
