I've been keeping an eye on that market and it looks like it's been relatively flat since pre-covid, given that it was one of the hardest hit by it with so much international travel involved.

The majority of single family homes in the district can be converted to duplexes (two family flat) or can have legal ADUs added, but the distinction depends on the underlying zoning.

I'm a new investor looking to acquire 2-4 flats in Chicago's northwest neighborhoods. 

It should only cost you in the $600-700 range as a flat fee, and the attorneys handle everything.

I have put aside $200k.  2 bedroom flat or condo would be ideal.I plan to use it 1-2 months a year.

I charge a flat rate for each house based upon the size and amenities. 

Additionally, I'm curious if you've found companies that offer a flat seasonal rate as opposed to charging per visit (particularly for snow). 

Unlike the 203k which is 3.5% flat across the units, HomeStyle ranges from 3% down for single family, up to 20-25% down required for 3-4 units. 

I'm selling 3 homes in CA.Looking for flat fee escrow companies.Around $500.  

As far as additional due diligence, I'd make sure the contractor is including very thorough prep work to make sure the floor is flat / level to the LVP manufacturer's specifications, ideally including a layer of plywood underlayment (if your subfloor is wooden), or whatever is recommended in your situation for the product you are using.
