Christa S Rickard Cap rates for same building differ for in/out of state investors?
25 April 2019 | 12 replies
I've only been looking for deals for a couple of months, but I have never seen anything that lists 1 cap rate for in-state investors in 1 for out-of-state, so I'm just guessing at what he meant but it didn't quite make sense to me.
Mark Gast Advice on first investment property in Chicago

At a 5% downpayment, the monthly total payment is ~5k and perhaps the rents could be increased a bit but even then, they'd only be around 5k total monthly gross rental income..after any expenses and repairs you're in negative territory. i don't really understand who would buy that property..I guess an owner occupant who doesn't mind having a higher personal monthly payment still, or someone just seriously banking on appreciation and willing to incur negatives during the meantime which seems silly..but i agree with the original poster that lots of multis in these areas (wicker/logan proper/humboldt) are priced like this kedzie one and basically aren't a good deal sadly, since they are the nicer properties (location and often turnkey wise). have to go further north/west to get the deals. im hunting for a 2-4 flat myself and wish it could be in prime palmer square location like the kedzie unit linked, but the numbers just dont work

Jason Conroy Are CAM allocations adjusted when there is a vacancy?
29 April 2019 | 10 replies
This is my guess but I recently saw a prior year allocation from a prior owner that essentially would have charged each of the occupied units $33,333 since they each benefited from 33.33% of the total amount spent on CAMs.
