Southwest Chicagoland Investment Opportunities

[Eric Sanders]

Hey Everyone,

I've just embarked on my real estate journey and am set on buying and holding rental properties in the southwest Chicagoland area, being anywhere from Beverly, Chicago to Orland Park. I wanted to ask if anyone is familiar investing in this area, and if they can share their experiences or share any suggestions they might have. 

I'm somewhat familiar with this realm, which makes me feel more comfortable investing around here, but I would be willing to look elsewhere that allows me to commute to Tinley, and would make my fiance feel safe. Ideally, I'd like to house-hack a small multi-family property, but the inventory for these smaller multi-families does not seem that great. 

Also, if there are any realtors out there, familiar with these areas, and are comfortable working with investors, feel free to reach out!

Thanks in advance!

-Eric
