For example, intro's to people here that can help you with certain specialties, planning, feedback on neighborhoods, financing of course, etc.

Congrats on your lot purchase in an awesome Chicago neighborhood like Humboldt Park.

What are the comps selling for (last 3-6 months)in the neighborhood?

If you're looking for positive cash flow, you should be looking into the B-/C type neighborhoods because this is where you'll find a lot more buy and hold, BRRRR, and positive cash flow opportunities.I appreciate your comments. 

@Jack Cottrelli get nervous when new investors buy random properties out of state.this is below the median price in KC, so i am assuming it may be in a more challenging neighborhood.  

Which will also depend on the neighborhood.You want to, "rehab/maintain to the Neighborhood".Most investors go overboard on their first rehab and waste a decent amount of money.

The city wants to have "Neighborhood Anchors Points" consisting of Mixed-Use and Retail/commercialVisual of all land bank properties The area I will focus in.A break down of cost to purchase all Land Bank properties on each street. 

And I much prefer a group where the members are also getting rich (not just the organizer).I am not paid by Brad!

When you say you want to prioritize cash flow over equity, you want to watch out for people honing in on that and selling you "good cash flow" deals which will be in D neighborhoods and will come with high capital expenditures and harder tenancies.

Look at recently sold properties in the same neighborhood that match the size, condition, and style your property will have post-rehab.
