I like Ashford and Gold Bar areas.

I like the Share Group for skip tracing, its not cheap, but great data is worth gold.

The question is will these properties appreciate enough to offset all the repairs and issues in the future?

This is also gonna depend on how strong the buyer is financially if its even possible for them to pay the difference.If you get multiple offers on a sale in the future and the price goes over asking, make sure the offer includes some type of language waiving a portion or all of the appraisal gap.If you tried to fight the appraisal already and didn't get anywhere, you don't really have much recourse.

I did get suckered into the narrative of those who say to try this method and am now realizing the sour end of the situation looking to recover in the future for the better.

Here are take aways as to how I see “wholesale” transactions (flipping properties) in the future 1.

The PO Box mainly won't get used but in future I plan to use the address with any tenents.

We'll ensure your access is promptly removed, and we genuinely wish you success in your future endeavors.

Additionally, for each existing and future Illinois investment property, I intend to:- Deed each property into separate Land Trusts.- Establish an Illinois LLC that will be taxed and will own the interests in the Land Trusts for my Illinois properties.- Set up a new management entity taxed as a C corporation, which can be fully owned by my revocable living trust.

For example, I have time, so I can buy a property that cash flows low because I don't need the money today and in 30 years (retirement age), appreciation on rents and loan buydown will fund my future lifestyle.If your goal is cashflow, then you are likely looking at markets that don't appreciate as well.
