In Chicago you request a CHA Burden sheet and that gross number minus utility allowance will be what you get in addition to making sure bedroom size is adequate.  

Cha cha do it again :)  

One of which is our first CHA tenant.

Hey @Matthew Giblin - I'd have to echo @Shamar Gregg, Chicago offers a great section 8 program through the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA). 

For what it is worth, I have passed multiple CHA Section 8 inspections for non-conforming garden units that are up to city code (e.g. ceiling height requirements)

To avoid most of the issue, financing should be at least 8 to 10 years for them to survive, if everyone is chaing 15% IRR with 5 year baloon, it's highly risky because then the operator would be forced to sell their investment too quick without adding value to investor.- Valuation, the valuation is all over the place man, an apple that's worthed $1K in 2021 now is only valued $200, there's something really wrong in the valuation of these industry, specially when they're leveraged.I've seen the last part when banks is doing LBO as well, they are like valuing company 10x from their own cash flow and use investor money to create "non sense" value, or just for the sake of heavy commision.

HelloI had never heard of CHA voucher in chicago and RTA forms.

Talked to the CHA and they said there are no section 8 listings available and that only tenants can control the property being section 8. 

Our highest rent increase was in Libertyville, where we own a condo.Even our CHA/section 8 rent rentals allowed us to increase our rents about $75.I also have an AirBnb in the Logan Square area...to be honest, it's really just been steady and consistent.
