You are not allowed to compound interest.If you bought the certificate from the state on a best price offer, you charge interest on your purchase price, not on the full amount of the taxes that were due, but were not paid by you when you purchased.After you obtained your tax deed, you are entitled to something called "mesne profits" if you file an ejectment lawsuit against the former owner and they redeem during that lawsuit.  

Let's assume the financials in the package are good for a moment (they probably are not) AND that you either do not or do achieve the broker's pro forma:If you purchase this asset, achieve ONLY the 'current' NOI, grow NOI 2% per year, and exit at a 5% cap at the end of Year 6, you will have a 4.8% unlevered IRR.

Hi All,I have only been in Chicago for 5 months and purchase my first investment property (house-hack).

I have 2 SFH, both purchased using house hacking.

Purchase price: $450,000 We bought this park for $450k.

If there isn’t significant equity capture at this purchase price, and it’s not in a great location, this would be a pass for me.

Are you purchasing an investment property or 2nd home?
