This could limit your ability to refinance in the future to lower your payments.Rental Viability: Renting out a very new home (built in 2019) may not be ideal due to potential wear and tear concerns and the fact that it's less likely to need significant repairs or updates that tenants often expect.Local Market Considerations: Chicago's property market is known for high property taxes and historically slower appreciation compared to other markets.Financial Necessity: If you don't have a strong financial or personal reason to move, such as proximity to work, family, or lifestyle changes, it may not justify the hassle and costs of buying a new primary home.I am a loan officer so feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any other questions or would just like to discuss!

I could review the stuff for the day or week and adjust the categories then if needed.I used a single CC for supplies, and a single checking account for all labor. providing the ability to match back expenses without having to check a bunch of different accounts.You could do this with different cards for each project, and a labor bank account for each project.

@Marisa VoelkelI think having properties in their own LLC is not necessary for the reasons that @Andrew Syrios and @Benjamin Aaker mentioned.It depends on your risk tolerance and ability to keep organized.

It's a duplex that I'll be house hacking.Outside of real estate, I enjoy almost ANYTHING outdoors, when indoors I love movies and board games, I'm dedicated to my volunteer ministry, and I've become fluent in Russian (learning Ukrainian).I also run my own SEO, marketing and web design agency, which I am PASSIONATE about! 

To cover our expenses now, I work as an SEO strategist at a digital marketing agency helping law firms grow their number of leads using local and national SEO strategies.Lately I've been going through the BP "SMARTER course" and some of the webinars.

Going back to intent,  a good and established wholesaler should have not so much intent as ABILITY to close.

I'll select a PMS with the ability to have the widgets on my site

Cold outreach is all about volume because you are trying to find the 0.5% of sellers who are motivated to sell.If you are looking for leads of sellers who are already looking to sell, you are better off doing inbound marketing such as SEO or PPC, or buying leads from companies that run their own PPC campaigns, which are called PPL (Pay Per Lead).For PPL, I would recommend https://propertyleads.com/

I am not sure I buy that Pilsen is the one southside of Chicago neighborhood driving rent increases, but it is surely a gentrifying area and factor.I think Bronzevilles & Woodlawn's ability to have more new developments has allowed that entire se coordinator to become a huge factor on the southside.Regardless, whatever you are doing is working so keep doing it!

There is a lot of value in being able to invest in your backyard - the ability to check on the property any time, saving costs for not hiring property managers and knowing the area better.
