Here are some Illinois first-time home buyer programs.2) Build your credit now so that it is as close to perfect as possible.3) Build your wealth. 

It tells me you may be unicorn hunting.

I have a great broker for single family homes and first time buyers or people with 2 properties.But I am looking for a broker who can help get things done for those who own multiple properties and want to grow their portfolio.

Not to mention, if you were to close on an investment property you could basically pay yourself the buyers agent commission. 

We used the standard form "Addendum for sale of other property by buyer".

You'll be paying at least 5-6% not the 2.5% you have on your sheet (unless you are an agent also and will only have to pay the buyers agent)Again...bottom line not enough details here...you chould make $35k or you could lose $15k with these number.

The market helped, but if I would of waited the properties would of gone to another buyer paying more....plus brokers love me because I actually perform quickly...leading to more and more deals.

Unless Dad transferred ownership before passing, the heirs (who might not be who you think they are) will have to get a license to sell from the probate court.I recently helped a buyer with a property that they really wanted. 

Go hunting - but not where most people look (online), best of luck.

I want to vet and qualify them  as well.Sometimes it's better for me to say NO to a passive investor or a direct buyer wanting to be my client if our goals do not line up.
