Friend Looking to Househack

[James Huff]

Good morning! 

I currently own two properties and one of my friends living in the city of Chicago is looking to get out into the suburbs and rent by the room or house hack. Anyone able to help? I can get you in touch with him.

House hacking in the suburbs can be tough if your goal is cash flow post move-out depending on the exact area due to higher taxes and city inspections (Berwyn, Cicero for example). A 3-4 unit in Aurora in Elgin could work but you'll likely need to do some sweat equity.
