If you really want to throw them off, get an unsliced loaf of bread from the supermarket, and apply their directions exactly.Once you've gone through a couple of the sets of directions, you will find that a full set of directions, that actually produces a normal PB&J sandwich, takes about three or four pages when typed and printed out. 

@Cliff Mccue I've talked to quite abit of investors I know down in chicago, and alot of people aren't pulling permits, obviously I'm basically a virgin when it comes to the bylaws in Chicago, but I know in Canada, if you do work without a permit, depending on your area you might as well just drive by a casino and throw  $30,000 out the window.  

Sounds like it's throwing away good money.  

Easier get electrician and HVAC guy I know to bid out project and cut out middle man than to have GC contact all these different people for bid if you catch what I am throwing. 

I just wanted to throw out the other side so if you were the seller in the future you'd have thought of this scenario.Good luck.

If I list it "for sale" I will get a wide audience but then I will owe a big commission to some other realtor down the road.

Not to throw a damper on your thread but I am always cautious and take such info with a grain of salt when it comes from organizations that have personal interests.

Since the lot can only fit four spaces, the investor needs to buy a vacant land at to meet the requirements, which in turns throws off his calculations. 

We are an Independent  brokerage with focus on Residential sales and Property Management for individual investors, so we cater well to that audience.  

You could either start off with property management to kind of learn the ropes from them, or dive in and throw it to a property manager if you get in over your head.
