The area is in an area that started out good then went sour and over the last 7 years or so has started to make a come back with better shopping and restaurants and the town is putting more money into it to make it nice again.

@Nimster Win Would urge you to never disclose your private details on the Internet.The restaurant/cafe industry has one of the highest failure rates of any industry.

Likely $5300 though.Logan square neighborhood: safe, walk able, desirable, close to public transportation, close to restaurants, gyms, etc.

(not sure the restrictions on size today, but in the beginning it was just big)Well it turned out to NOT be such a great deal - unless of course you are a pizza restaurant who does want to get to everyone.

You know what Mexican food always does to me.

If you are good with people, focus on getting into a restaurant, possibly work for a local pizza delivery and stow away AS MUCH MONEY AS POSSIBLE (Go read Set for Life).

Most people think they know how to run a bar/restaurant and there are MANY more moving parts than what appears on the surface.

We are able to walk to tons restaurants, bars, and nightlife.

the other gentlemen who is talking about truck rental and such.. now that for sure is not real estate investment like BP folks talk about it.. just like running a restaurant its on real estate but you have to run the business manage staff etc etc. its all good...  

If the tenants are stellar otherwise and you really want to keep them happy, you can offer a gift card to a restaurant in an amount of your liking, but don't let the tenants choices control your actions.
