@Hayden Wright higher cap rate is not always better, capture initial equity through value-add, reserves should be substantial and you will likely use them, if you buy off of a long-time owner be sure to budget for insurance and property taxes to be a lot more than they’ve been paying, buy in an area where rents and property values are going up (good market fundamentals like lots of jobs in diverse fields, affordability (wages can pay the rent), population growth, good schools, low crime etc.).

We live in the NW suburbs of Chicago and it seems like the most affordable ones are in the Elgin area, Aurora or in the city.

We didn't want furniture being moved up and down the house and this avoids any possible move-in/move-out damage.And, we mainly rent to traveling nurses and professionals.
