@Jonathan Klemm thanks for the mention, yes this is right in my back yard and I think I even know which property is being referred to. @Ericka Fairbanks I'd be interested in knowing more and will hit you up in a DM.

Thanks for the mention, I didn’t even see the event until then. I will definitely be there buying tickets now!  

Hi @Danielle Cage I would recommend Thomas St Jule, I've used him in the past and was happy with the service provided and will use him again if needed. Feel free to let him know I referred you.

Hi @Kevin McCauley reach out to @Christle Stezskal as she runs an investor meet up in McHenry Co which might be beneficial to you, I am a part of that group as well.

@Jonathan Klemm and I'm the opposite, I love Elgin and avoid Chicago! 

This is an example of how REI is great for everyone and can fit individual needs and wants and there is no one way to make things work in this industry.

Seems like they haven't changed at all - for anyone in the markets that they lend in, for anyone in the Chicagoland or Illinois market reach out to Eric Workman at Renovo Financial. I have done probably 40+ loans with them and they are TOP NOTCH, I have never missed a closing date with them as a lending partner by my side.

If anyone needs more information or direct contact information feel free to DM me on here.

@Jonathan Klemm thanks for the mention and hello @Kyle Barazowski. I'm in the Elgin area but invest pretty much anywhere within 30 minutes of there. I'd be happy to meet and have a conversation as I always enjoy meeting like minded people in REI and we are pretty close to each other. In fact we are starting on a renovation in Schaumburg today with another investor/friend of mine @Christle Stezskal that I've met though networking. 

My crew is doing the work on the couch house in Schaumburg and Christle handled the acquisition side of it on this deal. I am currently out of the country but should be back in about 10 days or so and would be happy to meet with you and show you around any projects that we have going on if you are interested. In the meantime I am sure Christle will respond and perhaps show you the project in your own back yard if she has time before I return.

Thanks for the mention @Jonathan Klemm. 

Hi @Evan Corsolini an investor friend of mine runs a McHenry Co group, reach out to @Christle Stezskal and she can get you in on the list to attend and meet up if you'd like. Likewise if there is something I an answer or help with let me know, I primarily focus on the Kane Co area but own a couple in McHenry, Cook and Dupage as well.

Hi @Talena Suggs I live and invest in Elgin and know @Mark Ainley personally and if/when I turn over my portfolio or rentals they will go to him. 

Since we are in the same market feel free to reach out to me if there is anything I can help with or answer for you.

Hey @Mark Ainley I have a guy in my area, not sure how far west he will go but I will DM you.
