ALSO this is a good time to further investigate the property, do a title search on your own if you haven't already done so.

Environmental Phase Two: Assessments/Subsurface Investigations: These projects include but are not limited to subsurface drilling and sampling, monitoring well installation and sampling, ground penetrating radar, and asbestos and lead sampling.

My suggestion would be to investigate short-term rentals and understand the legalities here in Chicago...which I believe will push you away from trying to start there.Whether you do long-term or short-term - FOCUS and clarity on what you are looking for is the key to finding a needle in the haystack which is what I'd say is what you are doing in the current market today.

(Of course the price doesn't' always relate to condition of the property... so that is some of the secondary investigations you have to do).  

In a situation where the seller had no prior knowledge of lead paint then it would have been up to you to further investigate it before closing on the home.  

So I could never get to market rents and am pushing that problem to you"  (I investigated this by looking at rent rolls going back 3-4 yrs to see rent increase history).Bottom line - TRUST the T-12 the most.

@Mathew Gervais I’ve been investigating in the St.

Thanks a million.I started measuring target states before jumping into metro areas or cities.I'm currently investigating Washington, Nevada, New Hampshire, Utah, Florida and Colorado.
