I'll be moving to Chicago permanently in the summer of 2022.

I would NEVER special order/ buy one smaller.Small people take baths/95 to 99 % adults take showers unless they grew up with or recently 'forced' to tub it.Make the shower,if thats what you have to do, as large as possible with a pan, then covered in river rock pebble floor,,,and ceramic tile the walls , over red guard,over cement board, over good insulation if its an outside wall,,,roxul is best, does NOT support mold like fiberglass,,,its spun from rocks.They also make a product you use INSTEAD of water when mixing your grout and its permanently sealed, forever,,,or use epoxy grout.Plastic or fiberglass enclosures are a joke and dont last from noon to dinner. crack, leak, get ruined often,,,are inferior product,,,and need special care, which renters dont EVER do.

Most of those inspectors are so fat and lazy they would never climb a ladder or fit through an attic hatch.

I gave them several hours notice since it was an "Emergency" So I have another witness as of today to their behavior.I always make friends with the permanent neighbors next to my homes and they watch my back for me.

The difference between the 9 cap and the 6 cap is the profit spread for the developer on the deal minus resale costs.The developer can simply keep the deal and have a 9 cap or sell if market conditions are optimal.Most do construction loans putting 20% down off of costs to build and then convert to permanent financing or sell off right away. 

According to the article, she is still looking for permanent home for her family.  

caveat: If you are late to the game and already have a fat 401k then you should convert to solo401k.

She has a new fulltime job lined up which I have verified is a permanent position where she will be making more than 4x the rent.

I agree and I don't intend to have just one property per LLC permanently.

Now if you define failure as a permanent state of a lack of success, then I think its arguable.The fact is that you WILL make mistakes and you will fail, but by persevering through and learning from the mistake/failure you can develop yourself that much more.
