This home is in Cook County Illinois.    

Looking outside of cook county might make more sense.

One of my mentors, Steve Cook, used to submit contract with no contingencies accept for financing.

The previous owner developed a drug problem, went to jail a few times and in her absence her business partners cooked meth, busted out doors and windows, homeless folks slept in it and so on. 

@Chris Baxter we're insured with Cooke Insurance, as far as I know they do larger MF as well, could be wrong though

I dont have much money to offer only some as a down payment on a place but not a huge monthly amount i can however cook, clean, and watch your children if you have any I was a nanny for 2 almost 3 yrs after i graduated highschool 2 yrs early and before i got pregnant but now i cant do it with the family i use to because i moved out of city and have no car, but i will watch your kids full time if needed as well as cook and clean for a place to stay.

Optional need: a bulkhead into the basement if owner occupier lives upstairs so as to avoid having to go through the lower unit to access the basement.When seller was owner occupier of lower unit, the Rent he collected for upper unit included all utilities (gas for heat/cook stove, electric) except trash removal and cableHere are the numbers I used:Total Square Footage: 1,800 sq/ftAsking price: 340,000Annual property taxes: 6600 Purchase Price: 325kAfter Repair Value 325,000 ?

- Are any of the residents smokers?

Hey @jordan - In Illinois and specifically Chicago / cook county you never know what is going to happen with property taxes. 

I have a few quality contacts in the area and the proper forms/contracts to use for property evaluations, seller negotiations, etc.I am a non-smoker and prefer to interact with the same.
