Got a new tenant and he had all kinds of problems setting up his payments.

@Art Webb, what kind of business?

I think this is extreme price gouging, especially since we did not agree to pay that kind of money and if he was expecting that kind of money, he should not have awaited to the very end to tell us.  

I'm hoping to help.Your question is the kind of question a stock investor asks. 

Here’s a breakdown to help you navigate your first deal, incorporating advanced strategies, including 1031 exchanges, to attract a broader range of investors.Neighborhood Recommendations: Chicago offers a diverse range of neighborhoods for different investment goals:Wicker Park & West Town: These areas are known for their strong rental demand among young professionals and offer good potential for cash flow.Lake View: Ideal for attracting tenants who want to be close to downtown while enjoying local amenities.The Loop: A prime location for high-income renters, making it an attractive option if you’re planning to house hack and generate a steady stream of rental income.Property Types: Opt for properties that align with your investment goals.

Hi was was wondering if anyone here in Chicago or surrounding areas have purchased from the cook county land bank and if so what kind of loan did u get if any to buy and fix it up or develop a property any info would be very helpful thanks

this is old  tried and true method of simply having you pay them to get credit cards .. there is no need to pay for this service.. unless you want to of course.. there is no magic bullet ut there that is going to give you credit and financing unless you actually qualify for it.But zero interest credit cards are used by some to do rehab and then pay them off issue is though your fico score drops like a rock the second you take on all these CC.Also starting out there is zero chance of getting any kind of business line of Credit that is unsecured.

With that said, I kind of wish we had built as we grew a little earlier because retrofitting has been a bit of a pain. :)Best of luck.

What kind of sheets do you think would work for this?

You kind of jumped the gun with the purchase in evaluating the entire picture prior to purchase, but it is what is right?
