I live In California and am seriously considering buying a property in the Chicago area.

The home is a duplex, and I wanted to know how can one verify the rents in an area. As well as find out how much section8 will pay for a home in that area? All information is greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance,

Xavier Wilson

@Xavier Wilson I use rentometer.com for market rents. very detail info via the pro memebership. example houses vs apartments rent rates.
for Section 8, it should be close to market rent but check out http://chicagoha.gosection8.com/Tenant/tn_Results.aspx
good luck!

Section 8 pays us market rates for our properties.
