You are officially my hero! 

My home has 2 private streets, one that leads to my driveway and the other that goes up the side of my property that I park some of my vehicles (because you can never have too many vehicles) and is an easement to other properties.  

Had a couple of cars towed when they parked in the driveway. 

I went with Interstate appliance on Brook Park Rd.

What's your take on purchasing cottages in RV parks for rentals?

A larger storage building (10X 12 tall barn style) is in the easement and I was told they would move it and move it back, at their cost.The access to the two rear units will be obstructed and damaged by the heavy equipment and the tenants will be upset and don't have another place to park their 4 cars.

I have been looking at 3-4 unit properties and stumbled upon a property located in Columbus Park.

They are rarely reported accurately by realtors on the MLS when transactions close to begin with and I don't believe anything other than the contract sale prices are utilized although an official study on this would be very interesting albeit a painstaking process to undertake. 

See below screenshots/map area.I did a similar strategy when bought a 4 unit in Rogers Park to help myself create high cashflow. 

A Hotel is totally different, as is a RV park or camp resort.
