Every faucet and drain was visually checked to make sure the water went down. 

I'm not sure I would pay to do this in a house, but there is no visual difference and it's tough as nails.

Hi BP,Not sure if this is a thing, but I am a visual/numbers person and would like to see on a map (like HAR/Zillow map search) where investors are getting deals.

It was very interesting to hear about the unique dynamics of Chicago investing.  

Quick to respond appropriately to the dynamics of a tenancy and considerate of the needs of everyone involved.

Let's say not renting, not paying the taxes.So, 50k+50K = 100K130K-100K=30K30K/$200/mo = 150mo150mo/12mo/yr =12.5 yr.You are betting that they will live less than 12.5 more years to break even.This also means that you have paid $130K for a house (today) that is worth 130K, with no income... so each month you are out $200 plus having $50K tied up that you can't put to use in a cash generating endeavor.I get the kindness bit... and for that it might be worth doing, but financially, it's a disaster.Now, if you can rent it for 1% of it's value, or $1,300/mo, then the dynamics change, and the numbers should look better.Good Luck!

(Boynton)Each  has a different dynamic so you get to network really good :) hopefully we can meet in person there, cheers!

Honestly, I'm more interested in the process of data modeling than the visualization but I need to learn more about the GIS tools out there.

Happy 1st of the month! Fresh start, fresh opportunities.—I am wanting to bring in a partner into my wholesaling business but am unsure as to how those things typically go compensated. Do most people pay by commisions...

If I had to pick one of them, no doubt about it, I'd go with Louisville.That being said, I think most of the mid-major midwest cities will offer similar dynamics with the ability to lean more towards growth or cashflow depending on the citiy and/or neighborhood you invest in.Feel free to PM me if you'd like to talk specifics of either market.
