Very high property tax rate, crazy high water bills, choking regulation, and bad tenants.

The Niagara Stealth advertises it's ultra-high efficiency @ 0.8gal/flush.I pay for the water in my rental units, so I was looking for something that's going to cut my costs on water, but also doesn't clog and need constant repairs.What do you guys think?

Write that answer down.A high quality company will be on top of their KPI's and their numbers will match.

@Caroline KnightI don't know the Chicago market but I'm highly supportive of house hacking.One thing to remember that positive cash flow isn't actually the goal of a house hack. 

With flipping, its a high risk /high reward thing... and the downside as well..That's fine if you don't want to be a landlord (other than str). 

Hey John, Given we are accountants, we cannot promote our services on BP as its against the rules.To help in your search:be sure to find an accountant who is willing to grow with you, and is not too high priced fee-wise.

you’re on the right track. just hang around this website & when you’re old enough go ahead & pay for membership at ur local real estate investor group in ur city- every city has one. google it. whatever you do start saving mad cash & get good credit. work hard, save the money & house hack. get a 2-4 multiple fam when you graduate high school with ur saved cash & good credit. 

I grew up on the west side of Fort Worth and actually graduated from Arlington Heights high school.
