I'm glad you've learned some tweaks to make the next round of this even better, but don't minimize the "win" that this one was, both for you, the buyer, AND the seller you served with the cash offer!

The Chicago community is quite active, so you will be well served by networking here.

Every state has different project sizes that the target.

That size would limit the number of life companies that would lend but there would be interest from a handful if the property is stable and in good condition.Freddie Mac also has a small balance program $1-$7.5M that would also be a good resource. 

I am un-suppressing it because …Guess what they didnt pay so now they are in default and don't have to perform any of the settlement requirements and a writ of restitution will be served on them SOON I hope.

@Hai Loc, the requirements to serve someone for a civil case may differ from state to state.

I have 60 mixed use units under management so I am looking for a mid sized program.

We would ask them to sign a lease and if they refuse we would serve a 30 day notice. 

It's just a good blueprint on how to change your life in bite sized actions.

The money you would pull out could be significant down payment on a mid size multi unit apartment building.
