Once you move to Chicago, look for similar groups—Chicago has a vibrant real estate community.Building a Team: Since you’re new, connecting with a knowledgeable real estate agent, lender, and property manager in your target area is critical.

Obviously, you should work with a good agent, lender, and home inspector to assist with each phase to ensure you are getting the best deal.

Hi Joshua, I am an investor friendly agent.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Any tips on finding an agent? 

I'm an investor and agent in VB happy to talk through your strategies sometime.

Multifamily mindset has recruited students from all walks of life such as teachers, medical doctors, veterans, real estate agents, business men, and I was included into a group (multifamily mindset encourages students to form groups) and one of them is a veteran who is divorced, has kids to support, not employed during that time, got a loan of $40,000 for the tuition.

One thing that is really challenging about this market is the huge number of agents and groups that are here.Thanks again!

Have your notified your insurance agent/company that you are no longer living in the property and that it's under renovation?

I have spoken with a couple real estate agents and they are scared to let me have the agreement thinking they are breaking some kind of code of ethics letting me have it.
