Hello folks! 

I just graduated from Northwestern University and am renting in Lincoln Park, Chicago with two college buddies. I am an entrepreneur. I started a coffee business when I was a freshman and am still growing it now. Over the last year, I've been digging into real estate investing material and recently finished The Book on Rental Property Investing (which led me here). I've met with a few brokers and am starting a search in about a month for a two or three flat I can house hack with a FHA loan in Avondale, Logan Square, Lincoln Square, or (maybe) Rogers Park. Optimally, I'd rent the units and live in the basement, attic, or garden unit.

I'm eager to meet fellow rental property investors in my area!

Also -- I'm curious if y'all recommend I sign up for the Pro or Plus Membership given where I am in my real estate investing journey.

Thanks!

Lucas
