Juan,

Great post.  You have opened my eyes about a neighborhood in Chicago that I think would be last on every investor's list but I'm seeing some of the changes there that you mentioned and I am going to take your advice and do more investigating. Thanks.

Stated income loans are available for commercial and multifamily mortgages through private lenders.  You would have an easier time investing in those as a self employed individual. 

Sorry, I answered above to quickly.  I would agree with Scott's post.  I also use Infousa.

Bizbuysell.com

I agree, they do not ask for money up front.

Welcome Steven!  

I have only been on this site for less than a week and I find it to be very helpful for my business.  I'm sure you will get a lot out of it too. 

Glen,

Would you look at apartment development projects?  If so, I have a connection for you in up state New York.  It is a 4.5 million dollar project with about $2MM in tax credits. 

I agree with Scott.  If that were my house I would start with an alderman.  You are surely paying residential taxes and not commercial taxes.  It doesn't seem right that your house was re-zoned without your having any say as the property owner.   You may want to seek out an attorney. 

bizbuysell.com is another one that I watch. 

Have you looked on loopnet.com?
