Chicago cap rates are lower then interest rates so what I see clients do is rehab to add a ton of equity/boost rents and then either just hold it or do a partial cash out to get back 1/3 or 1/2 the money in the deal which gives you a higher COC.

An experienced team or partner can also help boost confidence.Providing a combination of a solid commitment letter, proof of funds, and a clear, professional approach signals you’re serious and capable of closing the deal.

This includes the strategies and actions  you employ by being able to do your own deals without any assistance.

I would suggest maybe seeking the assistance of a real estate salesperson who could give you accurate market comparisons for the area, add to the description, and most importantly, take photos that will better highlight your property.
