I find data on free sites like Zillow extremely helpful for days on market for certain homes, and it allows you to sort by bedrooms to see how long a potential property may sit on the market at this moment (great for comping rent prices in the area as well)if I were to live in the property, I would take advantage of the FHA low down payment option to keep cash in my pocket for Reno costs  Hope this helps!

Hi Ropo,@Brie Schmidt is your "go to" for anything Chicago related.I've owned a condo there since 2017 and it's left a sour taste in my mouth as it hasn't moved in value at all.My fault tho as it was a "trophy property" of sorts so only have myself to blame.I've warmed up to the idea of house hacking over the years but still think that "money makes money" if you want to be active.$100,000 can go a long way in many markets when it comes to property flipping.But then again, not everyone wants to be active so I get it.Something to also consider is how landlord friendly the state is.I've heard some horror stories with Illinois but potato "potato" lol.My tenant for example is high net and I get direct withdrawal payment on the 28th of every month and hasn't skipped a beat in 4 years.Wishing you much success
