Anyone on here going to the chicago housing authority conference this Saturday?  It's free and looks to be a pretty informative day.  Let's meet up if you are!

Cha-Ching!

Hey Cha, One of my clients ran into a similar well issue around this time last year. 

Cha Yang are you looking at the MLS for finding properties?

We bought it last month for $9500.  3BR, CH/A.

Do they qualify for CHA or section 8?

It might be worth connecting with a local (CHA) realtor - there are several here on BP - to help you identify a few areas around town that might work for your needs.

Hi Al, I have been going through the CHA website trying to locate their rent schedules (what they pay for a 1,2, or 3 bedroom) with no luck.

-"market rents" are lower than CHA/HUD (section 8) rents, is the building approved for section 8?
