Live and Flip Chicago Area
Happy 4th Weekend folks. I am looking to purchase my second property. I currently house hack but am looking on my next purchase to be a sort of "live and flip" approach. I love the buy and hold / cash flow approach for long term stability and financial freedom but I feel the "live and flip" approach can really accelerate my actual wealth building. My question is I am in the Chicago market and I am researching which neighborhoods/suburbs as well have potential to appreciate. Im currently looking at a 200k budget. Should I be focusing on SFH/Duplex's/Condos etc? I am open to any and all suggestions, thanks.
