does any body know a real state apraisser in lake county iIllinois im about to get my first house  thank you  

I do not know anyone with a special needs child attempting anything like I am contemplating.  

I will give you some more advice, do not attempt to buy real estate when you make 6k a year.

@David Faulkner I completely agree that the numbers don't mean anything without a solid team on the ground and it'll be a long time and several visits to IN before I even consider buying anything, but as a result of this exercise I:have a spreadsheet (a starting point at least) that I can use in the future learned that Trulia estimates for insurance aren't accurate for investment propertiesfound a property tax calculator for the area Posting this is an attempt to network with others on the forum without being the guy that just says "is this good deal?"

If the car drives well and body is solid then then it's fine.

If the borrower requests mediation or attempts to defend, the process may draw out more.  

I attempted a flip in 2006, but it was a long-term live-in flip with a balloon note with terrible terms, and I was only 22 years old and very, very naive.

I have a goal to start owning rentals in 2016, but would you keep/jump in head first or attempt to just sell the contract and walk? 

Thanks in advance for your help and I look forward to someday soon contributing to the body of knowledge.

I attempted a personal loan to start out with a down payment on a multifamily unit I was looking into...they said because I have a home loan and a car loan they were not able to help me.
