Chicago is in Cook county and that is one of the worst counties around you'll find in terms of landlord laws. 4 to 6 mos for an eviction is not unheard of - thats the norm. 

The bigger thing is to make damn sure you've got a use for that building that's actually going to work, as commercial can be slow to sell.You need to know the place can be occupied within a timeframe that will work for you.Personally, I think buying vacant commercial without also having a business I plan to put in there seems kinda scary.. but that may just be because I've never done it (I have no experience renting buildings except to myself).On the upside, the kind of creative deals you can pull off with commercial are completely unheard of on the resi side...

Maybe I am a little lost. 1% return on a savings these days in unheard of for the most part.

Those kind of cap rates aren't unheard of in Michigan, but it definitely depends on the area.

It’s almost unheard of in today’s real estate market for a buyer to be able to borrow all of the money needed and also be able to wrap in all of the loan costs and fees without bringing any money to closing or having any “skin in the game”. 99.9 out of 100 times the investor will need to bring some money to closing. 

I need people I can report this unheard of immoral crime to.

When we go to a Resturant we give our Debit/Credit Card to the waitress, and it's not unheard of when one of them gets the info and starts buying products online.

I bought many a property in Portland OR.. in the 90's by offering just a smidge over ask.. the reason it was unheard of in those days in the this market to offer over ask..

Is that unheard of?

@Matt Bell  that is basically unheard of financing for  a true fix and flip..
