That’s amazing Rachel!

I bought a 3 Bedroom SFH in Cahokia Heights, IL on April 2024 and it is STILL NOT RENTED TODAY.I bought for $79k convinced by the Section 8 mentor Tom Cruz to buy from his team and to focus on cashflow vs. appreciationI went through 3 contractors that all did a subpar job and just barely got it all togetherI haven't been able to find an appropriate Property Management team to help on this side of ILI have it listed for rent (Zillow, Turbotenant, Fb, Craigslist) for about 3-4 weeks now since repairs were done.If anyone has any suggestions to get this rented ASAP I would greatly appreciate it and any Property Management connections that can help would be amazing as well.Thank you all for your time and Happy Holidays & Happy New Year Ouch. 

This is the reason I quit being a moderator because of something that went mildly off the rails in the forums, and then it was completely censored because I responded to staff in the forums after they mentioned me.I think the moderators do an amazing job and should be given more pay or credit or anything.

It's a great time to get in right now when you can still find positive cash flow and amazing appreciation here.

Wow amazing, you hit it on the head.

It’s amazing to see how much the market has changed since then..and I remeber reading an article in Forbes that talked about how travelers often prefer unique stays with great locations.A friend of mine up in Lakewood had a client who tried an Airbnb in a condo overlooking Sloan’s Lake.

I would consider selling if you have lived in the home the past 2 / 5 years since you have a decent amount of tax free equity in there but as long as you have a plan to reinvest those funds.By your numbers, since you have an amazing rate and high rents, I would consider renting it out if you believe your area will continue to grow in value.

It is amazing the connections between all these things.

Amazing what can come of just grinding volume with cold calling Volume + consistency + follow-up = DEALS.Simple really. 100%

@Eric Jones - Amazing job being patient, I'd have given up after 3 tries.
