@Sheri Lawson, thanks for the tip.

I have absolutely no experience in real estate as of yet but I am hoping to build my career and obtain the knowledge and strategies I need for success .I will be turning 21 this month and have the goal of obtaining my real estate broker license and am currently saving money in the hopes of putting a down payment on a home (when a good deal presents itself)  to be my first investment property.If anyone has any tips or suggestions I would be more than happy to listen and if anyone has knowledge about any real estate brokers in the Naperville,  Aurora,  or  Chicago IL areas please share!

Hi Brandon,Thank you for the tip - Since I have joined this site a couple of hours ago I could not stop reading through everything!

Thanks for the tips everybody!

I've heard a few tips on the podcasts on how to make the rentals a bit tougher to stand up against the increased wear and tear they may go through with college students.

Thanks for the tips!

Investor Tip: Never borrow a Hard Money loan unless you are positive you can sell the property quickly.

If anyone has any tips, they would be most welcome.

@Gail Kaitschuck, just a tip.
