Overall been a good move. 

It's like asking "What type of food is good?"...

Mistakes aren’t impossible – but the taxing authorities are usually pretty good at their job.

Their pricing isn't all that great but the service is good and they will wrap an umbrella liability policy around all of your personal items as well as up to 10 properties. 

Can you please share what areas are the best to invest for cashflow, Which areas are best for renting out in good neighborhoods?

As it is right now, it is not a good deal for anyone. 

Afterwards, they become a great resource for referrals to other first time buyers because you did such a good job educating and not giving up on them like many other Realtors do.Or get together with Lenders and create first time home buyer classes.

Sometimes there are wholesalers who are VERY good with tenants who can manage one property for you and maybe more.

Chicago should have some good ones for cheap.

Even facebook might have some good local groups for you.
