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've helped a lot of investors in your area, and I find that many of them end up purchasing rentals in the Central Valley for the very reason you mentioned.  

Are you purchasing an investment property or 2nd home?
