Hi was was wondering if anyone here in Chicago or surrounding areas have purchased from the cook county land bank and if so what kind of loan did u get if any to buy and fix it up or develop a property any info would be very helpful thanks

@Michael SimmondsI've spoken to many investors in the same predicament; I'm sorry you're having to deal with this.

Lots of good info here and at a good price too.

If we were to split like this on our current development, our engineers would collect 25 to 35 times as much as we paid them on a straight up fixed cost contract. 

I mailed a 3 day to pay or quit notice, obviously nobody was there to receive it.

i applied for a great card offer last year, got rejected, and was actually able to connect to a nice person who helped me to (accurately) revised my application and get approved.

I mention this because if you're working with a lender or broker and tell them up front that you intend to payoff your loan in a few months, they probably arent going to waste time on you because they dont want to work for free.

This will give you a base for what you need to put in to get the best value out of your properties when you are checking ARV and getting the sales price you want along with selling quickly.
