@Aaron Zimmerman my old Chicago buy box (Albany Park, Rogers Park, Irving Park, Lincoln Square, Ravenswood Manor) has moved pretty far away from my preferred fundamentals.

However, I wanted to highlight that, in Northern Europe, investment preferences can often differ.

With that being said, I probably only deny a couple of requests per year and the vast majority of guests are great!

I acquired a 3-flat in Humboldt a couple months ago who had two units not paying (ouch).

Seems like a lot of folks prefer SFH, but I bought a Townhouse because it seems like it is easier to maintain (HOA covers external, landscaping, and neighborhood amenities).

would be interesting to hear how "bottom-of-the-barrel" these questions can get lol(I can also hop on the phone sometime and chat throw if you prefer and are open to that)Getting neighbor signatures could be fantastic!

The ideal home price for you will depend on: 1) downpayment size 2) risk appetite, 3) preference for more cash flow or appreciation.Given our price points, our investors need to have 35-45K to start, on average.The typical cash-on-cash return on our properties net of loan payments, insurance, taxes, and property management fees is 6-8%.Ultimately, you can obtain financing from any lender, although we have partner lenders that can provide very competitive rates.

Small places are for couples.

Your credit will only be hit once if the apps are all within a couple weeks, and this will give you the opportunity to make an apples to apples comparison.

Me and my girlfriend recently moved into a home we are renting along with another couple in the separate basement unit.
