Hi @Soumya Brijesh, I currently live in Chicago but am very interested in investing in the Cleveland area.

Los Angeles stats:(1) Bull market (first quarter of 1975 through the third quarter of 1980): real home price increased by 69% over 23 quarters.Bear market (1980 Q4 to 1984 Q2): real price decreased by 9% for 15 quarters.(2) Bull market (1984 Q3-1989 Q4): up 67% for 22 quarters.Bear market (1990 Q1-1997 Q2): down 37% for 30 quarters.(3) Bull market (1997 Q3-2006 Q4): up 166% for 38 quarters.Bear market (2007 Q1-2012 Q2): down 43% for 22 quarters.(4) Bull market (2012 Q3-2015 Q1): so far the price is up 27% for 11 quarters.If history is any guide, the L.A. housing price cycle seems to last about 12 years on average, of which seven years is spent in the bull market with at least 65% real price appreciation, and five years is spent in the bear market.

Receiving adequate funding from loan for purchase price and reno budget to based on the Homestyle LTV and ARV.I only want to rehab homes in my old neighborhood of Chicago.

If you can tack on the extra HOA fee on top of the rent and the market can still bear it, by all means go ahead.

I am a 40 year old from Chicago.

I am in the Chicago area and I would love to learn hands on.

I am located in the south suburbs of Chicago if anyone knows any banks that provide the service I am looking for.
