Owner-occupying a small multi-family property is a smart move—you're reducing your own housing costs while building equity and generating rental income.

Switching property managers seems like it was a smart move, especially with how much you and your wife had to step in before.Chicago definitely isn’t an easy market, but it sounds like you’re set up for better success moving forward.
