@Tyler Lingle unfortunately I won’t be able to attend the one on 12/5 but will definitely check it out your events next time when I’m in town! 

The last full septic I did in NJ was 42k including the leech field and everything new.Most towns get sent a septic inspection these days and will require that it be done.

I believe the success is 1. cute factor, 2. price in an expensive town 3. demographic that is underserved. 

The town I invest in is a crap town.

Your budget can not dictate the safety of the project and your relationship with the town and permitting.

Here’s a breakdown to help you navigate your first deal, incorporating advanced strategies, including 1031 exchanges, to attract a broader range of investors.Neighborhood Recommendations: Chicago offers a diverse range of neighborhoods for different investment goals:Wicker Park & West Town: These areas are known for their strong rental demand among young professionals and offer good potential for cash flow.Lake View: Ideal for attracting tenants who want to be close to downtown while enjoying local amenities.The Loop: A prime location for high-income renters, making it an attractive option if you’re planning to house hack and generate a steady stream of rental income.Property Types: Opt for properties that align with your investment goals.

A tenant can do $20k of damage pretty quickly and skip town never to be found again, if you aren't careful.  

I will be in Cincinnati from 11/1-11/3 attending the REIAGC this year and would love to meet with any Real Estate professionals and investors while I am in town.

City tried to negotiate some things with rent payment, but I was out of town in Canada. 

I'm in a small town with thousands of people who have rented from me.
