Hello BP Community,Looking for a reliable Realtor near the Park Forest, IL area.

BiggerPockets community please tell me this...  

Hi @David Lakat , Welcome to the BP community and to investing.

Hello, I've been a listener of the bigger pockets podcast for some time now and decided to take a step and join the online community.

Hi @Jim Munoz, Welcome to the BP community.

Thank you biggerpockets community for the instruction and support that has allowed us to be in the position to need to ask these questions. 

@Glenn Zielazny Welcome to BP, there's a great community of people here, all willing to share their opinions.

All of the above is helping me build experience and a network within my local real estate community and earn some money on the side to put towards future investments.

Such safe income properties in this price range make sense when annual rent is 10%-12% of the property price.High Cashflow InvestmentsHere is an example: wooden frame house build in the 70's, selling for $35k and rented $650 per month.You should be aware that there is a qualitative gap in tenant sociological category when rents are lower than $900 per month.

I'm committed to educating myself first as much as possible, and I'm hoping to get advice/comments prior to my first investment from the community (online and local) as I go thru this journey.
