Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

How do I acquire the funds to build an ADU to the property?

To save those costs, you might want to stick to some year build and older, for example, if you cannot do inspections on the properties that you are buying due to off-market deals or something else that is hindering you (all sellers I buy from do not want anyone in the home till we close).

I'd like the building to be within 10 minutes walking distance from a Brown Line L stop, ideally in Lake View, North Center, or Ravenswood.

Any other books you would recommend to someone completely new to real estate investing but who would like to build a solid foundation going forward?

THE VISION: With 130 units and 8 buildings plus a wedding and event venue, our vision includes revamping this space into a dream hotel.

Build relationships and you'll find offering services well come. 

SFR with room to build on the lot will be much more plentiful than duplex/triplex deals.

See, when building a portfolio, appreciation is key, and the #1 factor that will dictate things.

I'm also looking to build a network and connect.
