Hosts do anything to ensure a 5-star, to include lying about the guest just to coax a positive review out of them.Hotels don't look at reviews and they do just fine.The people you are talking about are the same ones that will eat most of a steak dinner, then demand a refund because it was under-cooked.

It's 30 minutes outside of Chicago, so the rental rates are pretty solid....until you remember that it's still under Cook county's property taxes. 

If i went to a restaurant and my steak were under cooked id have them cook it more.

I don't personally invest there because it falls under Cook County.

MISSED ITEMS: under cook top and refrigerator, oven, base of andbehind toilets, light covers, windows, blinds, fan blades, switch plates,and yard trash. 


@Eddie Allen you should still be able to get some good tenants that way but if you go the Section 8 route that falls under cook county housing vs Chicago housing so that is a plus!!

Faced with an unfamiliar grill, I will either burn or undercook my food and then I will blame the cheap property owner for not wanting to spend $300 on a real grill.

I have a client who works in the cell phone space; his company builds the chips that do wireless charging (every phone company but Apple uses his chips, and he said that Apple under Cook is a terrible company to try to work with).Anyways, according to him the cell phone technology has basically plateaued for the foreseeable future, as there is really not much else that can be done in the terms of technological innovation with the phone.
