I have been diligently reading, studying, and beginning to practice analyzing cash flows of properties within Chicago and some Chi suburban areas.While I try to use whatever tools I have at my disposal and also be conservative with my numbers while analyzing properties (vacancy percentage, expenses, etc) I believe that in some areas of my analyses, I may not be getting the most accurate information.For everyone out there, where do you get your rental estimates by location?

Be sure to study up to see what is best for you.

Maybe study some more and take again. 

The reason the content I am studying won’t point me in the right direction where to start, is because I am in what is apparently a unique situation.

If a Cost Segregation Study had not been performed on this $883,000 apartment complex located in Vista, California purchased in 2021, it would have had first year depreciation of approximately $32,700.

Hi I'm currently a student in college studying Mechanical Engineering and a friend and I are looking to invest in Real Estate once we graduate in May.

You would need to study your market to see what is best.Goo luck!

I know starting off can be scary I studied the Ohio market for two years and connected with local investors and out of state investors in Ohio before I finally pulled the trigger.

At the end of the day, in the long run, without studying the stock market and the knowledge like Warren Buffet, most people ended up not beating the market and might as well just put the money in SP500 index funds.

Yet I still have time to post on this board, study the markets and see where I want to invest because I buy time.
