Pilsen sits right along the Pink Line and if you can get your hands on a good deal anywhere in Pilsen, I say go for it but if you really wanted to maximize your return, I definitely think anything from 16th street to Cermak Rd would give you an amazing return.

I barely could tell they lived here they were such ghosts.

@Calla Gruss I've done fix and flips around Decatur, North Decatur (30033) and Tucker (just barely OTP) with great success.

These guys will suppress a movement so quickly it barely gets known about.

Some examples include:Bathrooms ($0.0052/lead)Bedrooms (same as above)Last Market Sale Price ($0.0105/lead)Last Market Sale Date (same as above)Pre-Foreclosure Flag ($0.0079/lead)These barely scratch the surface.

And not all people are capable of operating a property the same, I had on in St Cloud that seller was barely making anything on it, so sold it, and now it's a cash cow, same property, done as same kind of rental, just different management styles. 

I guess I just haven't yet come across a property manager that isnt trying to do the bare minimum... but definitely there is value in a PM that does what is needed. 

Hi Josh, I would consider investing in other markets with bare minimum 1% rule.

Appraisers can't tell unless they've been in lots of comps themselves whether an "improved deck" in that area generally means an outdoor kitchen, pergola and fire pit with high end appliances or a $500 grill and an aluminum sink in the corner of a bare deck. 

Becoming that expert in that certain area.Alex Again bare with my seplling, and grammar.
