PLEASE HELP ME FIND A PROPERTY IN CHICAGO!!!!!

Hello BP!

I'm a new investor based in Chicago, IL and I have been VERY active in my search for a cash flowing property. I was recently in the process of closing a deal in Waukegan, IL for a multi-unit property that I identified but due to zoning issues the deal did not go through.

I've been working with my realtor since Oct and we still have not been able to find anything in Chicago that matches what I'm looking for (cash flowing property, descent area, FHA approved up to $285K). It's REALLY been a struggle to find something within this criteria so I thought that I should open the floor and ask for advice!

I'm open to any suggestions as it relates to switching my strategy and or approach!  It has really been a struggle and unfortunately my realtor hasn't been able to provide much value outside of showing me the property's, which I totally understand. 

I'm looking to get something closed ASAP, and if anyone could help I would sincerely appreciate it. I currently work close to Waukegan but live on the North Side of Chicago...

Thanks BP,

Tim
