Looking for Chicago area investors

I recently signed up for BiggerPockets and I am extremely grateful to all the material they have put together. I have listened to a lot of podcasts so far (have not signed in Netflix for a while). I recently bought a foreclosed property that I am planning to get fixed and rent. I find it difficult finding good cash flowing properties on the MLS. Do you guys know any wholesalers in the area?

@Aaron Mikottis  Amen, and thank you for your comments on Chicago.  It is still a great city, and the average visitor won't ever find themselves in Englewood.  I no longer live in there Chicago area, but I still visit regularly, and it baffles me to hear people who know NOTHING about the place spout off.  Chicago has a legacy of poor communities which have been deprived of resources, so the violence is expected.  This doesn't mean that these neighborhoods won't ever change, but a major investment will have to occur before they will improve.
