I pay attention to local amenities like shops, parks, and restaurants, because they make the area more appealing to tenants.

I feel I have a rough idea, which is..I'm in Rogers Park, my next important step is to wait out 1.5 years until I can fully rent out the condo, but for the meanwhile get a roommate to save more money.

I think it's going to be location specific for sure; where I am very few people hang out in the house all day long as they are usually busy hitting the parks and attractions.

Rehab is nice so I don't think that will be a concern, this is also off street parking so ones with garage will be favored more if you are priced the same. 

I started working with Sal Auciello (he's in this thread above) and we got to the point of doing an appraisal on the house that's part of the park. 

Overland Park, KS vs Kansas City, MO) Very landlord friendly, worst case eviction is usually 8 weeks + $500 + lost rent (cannot comment on individual cases and this is not legal advice) Large diverse metro area - variety of jobs, companies, people can have a career in KC.

Some solid areas to look at are:Riverside, Avondale, Murray Hill, San Marco, San Jose, Orange Park, southern part of west side, east Arlington, pockets of the Northside.I’m on my phone so a little tough to go in great detail, but you can message me and we can find a time to chat if you’re interested.Chris - thanks for the reply.
