I enjoyed a better lifestyle and had more money left at the end of the month here on 25k a year than I did on 70k a year in Chicago.

I am a newbie from Chicago area.

However, I've only had to do it once so far).On water and sewer, they can put in separate meters, but we'd have to track down each separate unit's supply line, etc. so we just bear with that.

I don't think extra costs for repairs whether the money is used out of pocket or used from a loan has any bearing.

Bear in mind underwriting would most likely be a little tougher given the circumstancesAs for the first situation if the government incurs no loss then eligibility would not change

I started a website in Chicago that listed an online calendar of every real estate seminar, club meeting, etc... and sold advertising on it and eventually used it to create a small real estate conference that actually turned a profit.

I'm in the Chicago area, but I would think a long-distance deal could be worked out.Thanks for any ideas.

It's not ideal, but I have seen $800,000.00 houses in Chicago with no sill plates and they were not "repaired" before being sold.

Not saying that rents will fall to a level reflecting a 12K investment, lucky for investors there are intrinsic values at play as well and investors will be charging what the rental market will bear, not what they have invested.
