Hello, 

Does anyone have a 2023 City of Chicago Residential lease for the landlord to give to the tenant?  If so, can you please send me a copy? 

Thanks

I have an opportunity to buy a multi unit on the south side of Chicago in either Woodlawn or South Shore.  If you had to choose base on location, which area would you look at first?  Of course cost, they both are around the same cost, and other factors play a role, but I’m looking for the area for the most potential and great equity over time.  Any insight would be appreciated. 

@Jason Hopkins Absolutely! 

@Jason Hopkins Thanks a million for the insight and guidance.  I’ve contacted a lawyer and we are talking about the best direction tomorrow morning.  This is my first investment and to your point, I need to educate myself more.  It was dirt cheap and wanted to move on it before anyone else does.

@Wayne Brooks Excellent advice and counsel.  Thanks a million! 

@Curtis Rouse Jr Will do!  Thanks a million.  

@Curtis Rouse Jr Are you free to talk tomorrow or Monday fir a couple of minutes?

@Curtis Rouse Jr Can I have quick call with you tomorrow or Monday?

Howdy, I’m a first time investor buying a wholesale property.  Before I close, what I should I ask the seller for in order to determine that I’m free from any outstanding taxes, liens and other items that will could possibly come to haunt me later down the road.  The purchase will be through a quick claim deed.  Please let me know your thoughts.
