What kind of property is this?
Newbie wholesaler in Chicago taking action here and so far hitting my stride. So as I search for distressed properties to wholesale, I keep running into these properties that are 2 unit, 2 Story, Georgian style homes that look like Condos. The thing is these don't have HOA's and each unit has an owner and its own parcel number. I'm not sure how to approach these as a wholesaler. If I were to acquire a contract from the owner, how would I market it? What would be my ideal end buyer, and what would I comp it against? Any one with experience in South Side Chicago wholesaling would be helpful.
For information sake these properties/units are vacant and extremely distressed.

Common in most places, side by side with a common wall, each owns the land underneath......referred to as townhouses, 1/2 duplexes, row houses, etc. depending on location. I’m guessing Chicago has their own name for them.

That sounds about right. Is there a way I can put pictures on here for example? Maybe links? Not sure if thats ok.
Hey Nathaniel,
Congratulations for starting in real estate.
What areas on the south side are you targeting ?
I am a local investor from Chicago and looking for small multi unit buildings on South east side.
