Looking outside of cook county might make more sense.

Washers dryers, fridge stove microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker, pots and pans, dishes and all utensils, bedroom suites, sofas and recliners, end tables, coffee tables, night stands, old style televisions, gas and charcoal grills, the list goes on.What I buy new: linens, towels, pillows, HDTVs.My STRs are for short term working people at a refinery.

Cook PC in Green Hills is a great RE lawyer.

I would contact @David Cook since he is on the ground and managing the types of properties that you are looking to invest in.Good LuckDerrick

I manage my own properties because of all the horror stories out there, so I'm definitely biased, but - I would lean towards the little guy who doesn't pretend to know everything - it may cost you less to have him refer you to actual specialists if you need them & not have his fingers in every pot.

Always ensure that regardless of your kitchen countertop ideas , go for materials which  can withstand wear and tear are durable while cooking and preparation.

Thanks @Victor Cooke!  

"Sticky Icky" = pot, weed, etc.Yes, title companies and mortgage brokers have come under recent RESPA heat lately and particularly in CA.One of my agents here gets NOD and NOT's from his title then forwards them to me so I can still get thme that way.

Or go buy a bag of pot, break it up in a bunch of little bags and put it in his office and call the cops.

If you bought a new doormat and put flowers in the pots to spruce up the curbside appeal right before you sell that can be expensed off.
