Hi @Allen Moore, I’m my experience with renting SFH’s in the Chicago suburbs, section 8 tenants have worked out way better for me than market rate tenants in terms of the duration of the tenancy, the rent level and the collections.

Leveled with a skidsteer.  

There are different levels of feasibility you can order but it will be roughly $4k for the initial study and another $2k to dig deeper.

This seasonal slowdown means fewer competing buyers, and this gives savvy investors the upper hand in negotiations.

I’m not sure if this is due to the recent surge we experienced in rents and now things are leveling off but time on rental market has increased.

If you were to buy a $200k fixer-upper, how much are you expecting to have in rehab costs?

I'm in a trendier up and coming area so the upper unit fills quickly and I've seen my property value jump quite a bit in the last 2 years.
