Long-term buy-and-hold rentals in stable neighborhoods, prioritizing consistent cash flow and responsible management over rapid appreciation.

I have better luck with posting in the zillow rental section;   rent before you buy, live in a great property while you get yourself ready to finance a great home....Our business model;   protect the buyer or tenant at even our own expense. 

Quote from @Veronica Mitchell: I'm looking to see what are some of the multi-unit in and around Chicago area to buy in? 

In a perfect world that’s how I would start since it would be a lot easier than buying a home but I’m sure there’s some things I’m overseeing.

(I only have RPR data for DC)2025 may be a good time to buy.

The general rule of thumb when using debt is to ensure that whatever asset you buy with the debt should make more than the debt service.  

For a number of years I've formed transactional partnerships (form an LLC with single or multiple members to buy a building, build condos, townhomes etc).

If you don't trust your agent enough to tell you not to buy a house, then get a new agent!

Where I’m at there are places you can buy with20k down.

It's either that, or try to buy 33 sq feet of land from one of my neihbors. haha...
