If you're thinking of that, the 200 pound gorilla that makes everyone else in the industry look small (and green) is BlackRock (Blackrock Real Estate Investment Trust).

I’ve been pounding the pavement since I signed onto this forum turning over every stone and I found a duplex that I’m working on bringing under contract.

That’s about 9 percent of the county’s 1.88 million total.But only 7 percent of those delinquent properties -- 11,780 -- were able to attract a buyer at the county auction, the analysis showed.The remaining 150,000 properties — in arrears on property taxes in perpetuity because their bills are so high as to deem them unwanted — represent yet another warning of sorts for Cook County politicians who believe they can tax and spend with impunity.In south suburban Ford Heights, Cook County Treasurer records show 47 percent of property owners didn’t pay their property taxes in 2018 -- 1,070 out of 2,274.Nine of the 1,070 attracted a buyer at auction.

Penny wise and pound foolish and all that.  

I'm sure if you pound the pavement you'll find someone, particularly as you now have the experience under your built. 

This really sounds like a bit of penny wise pound foolish. 

Hi Aaron- I believe there are a lot of reasons why sellers need a lease option - people that have too much equity, people behind on mortgage payments, people that need to move and need immediate debt relief from the payment of two mortgages, FSBO people trying to save on paying commission, unwanted inherited properties.

Hey Nicole, I've been dabbling in some probate stuff down here in Texas but I am pretty brand new to it all, so I will refrain from giving unwanted advice.

Never had a complaint. use all four large listing sites and charge a higher booking fee and you might find why I do this. people who worry about listing site fees are penny-wise and pound-foolish.
