Personal raise How did you add value to the deal?

Market timing, properly acquired property, personal capital available How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

In high-cost markets like Chicago, that can be tough to meet.If you're looking at a duplex, the self-sufficiency test doesn’t apply, so you’d just need to qualify based on your personal income and the rental income your lender allows.If your current lender isn’t familiar with making FHA work in your situation, it might be worth getting a second opinion from someone experienced with FHA multi-unit financing.

Some of the heavy hitters here in Chicago discussed the ADU program with a very nice person from the building department.

Any insights or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!

I personally spend about 50K a year in masterminds and always get my money back just through network of individuals you get access to.
