Nice work! I am also an investor and soon to be broker in the chicago area. I focus on Pilsen and neighborhoods close to Midway. l Would love to connect sometime to mindshare what your thoughts are on current local market. Josh

Hey Justin, Count me in as a contact to help in any way. My partner and I have numerous investment properties in the DSM area. I currently live in Chicago but my partner is there. I come back at least once a month. I have invested in numerous markets around the country. We have used a few good GC's in Iowa but as it always goes, my top one moved to Florida and we are back to looking for someone good who we can trust. Best, Josh

Hi All, Bumping this thread. My GC moved to Florida this year and I have a potential BRRR. I have contact with a few of his subs but am looking for an experienced GC that could manage project. I live in Chicago but my biz partner is in DSM. I realize it is a extremely hard time to find available people but would appreciate and recs. Thanks, Josh

Thank you all. I believe we found someone local. Best.

Thank you Grace! I will follow up with him.

My business partner and I are looking for a good CPA. We are starting to grow our property count and are looking for a great CPA to help us navigate our growth. Our business is in Des Moines, IA. We are open to a CPA from outside the state as well. It is currently just the two of us. We have around 15 units currently and expecting to grow that number again shortly. Thanks in advance.

Thank you for all of the great responses. 

Hello, I am just moving back to Chicago after living in NYC for a couple years. My yard had yellow dead grass from animals and my wife found pet cleaner. My Tenants were ideal overall but I am now finding out from multiple neighbors that they had a dog. Our lease specifically says no Pets. I don't have a fine or consequence in lease, just no pets. So far I have to replace sod/grass, have multiple scratch marks on wood floors, I am also considering an HVAC cleaning as I have terrible allergies, especially to Dogs/Cats. What would be best way to handle? I already have a list of things to charge our of security deposit. Is it fair to keep all of deposit or add on a pet fee? 

I have multiple properties in another state and have tenants with pets that we charge a non-refundable deposit and monthly fee. This is first time I have found out about pet after the fact. 

My father in law visited property for me a couple times over past few years and tenants always made it difficult for him to visit. Usually took a couple days and know it makes sense.
