Hello BP! My name is Tushar, and I live in Chicago, Downtown. As a brief introduction I work for Ernst and Young under the Transaction Advisory practice and I value businesses for a living. I recently bought my first condo in Chicago downtown which is currently my primary residence and am looking for avenues for passive income by buying rental properties and perhaps a multi unit complex in Chicago area.

Since learning about BP, I have been totally hooked to it, I been hearing all podcasts on way to and back from work and do my best to attend the awesome webinars every Wednesday. One of my goals is to be a guest on podcast on the BP showcasing my portfolio of assets and how I escaped the rat race.  

I wanted to check if someone is aware of a good REI networking club in downtown Chicago, please do let me know. I did attend couple of them but both turned out to be marketing seminar with someone selling their real estate courses.

Also, if any newbies in Chicago wanna network and meet up over a coffee, again give me a shout and me can network.

Go Cubs!

Welcome! Chicago is a great place to invest in. I have done most of my investing in the south side of Chicago to gather cash flow and am now looking in the north side or western suburbs for a larger deal now. Would love to connect here with like minded folks

    @John Mathewson Thanks John for the note. For sure there is ton of great information here. Its more like information overload. Would we awesome to meet up and hear how you went about doing your first deal. I think once you get your first deal under the belt - the rest should be easy and then know what questions to ask and what information to look for.

    Do you make your way to Chicago downtown - if you do lets meet up.
