Post: New Investor in Chatham/ Springfield, IL

Hey, Jake!

My family and I are located in Pleasant Plains, IL. We moved from Chatham early this year and converted our primary residence there to an investment property. Other than having one rental (4-3), we are still new to the game. 

Our plan right now is steady growth with single family and smaller multifamily over the next several years and self managing while the workload allows. Our capital is limited so we may try to use fix/flip to build capital as well as bringing in outside investors.

Maybe we could grab coffee sometime and talk!

Goodluck, and welcome to Bigger Pockets.

Hey Bigger Pockets! After listening to both the money and real estate podcasts for the last year or so I decided to join the forums (a little while ago) and I’m finally getting around to introducing myself. My name is Mike and I’m from Pleasant Plains, IL. I currently own one rental property in Chatham, IL, but I’m hoping to grow my rental portfolio in the near future. I’ve found great value in the podcasts and I hope that I’ll be able to give back to the community now that I’ve joined the forum. I’d love to meet with investors in my area and discuss our local market, deals, collaboration, and real estate in general! So far my experience in real estate has been positive. It has helped us to achieve financial goals that we had otherwise not been able to meet. In my free time I enjoy biking, hiking, fishing, camping, and pretty much anything else outdoors. I look forward to meeting bigger pockets members, and thanks for providing such an amazing resource for real estate investors!
