Chicagoland Newbie - Looking to Start Investing
Hi Bigger Pockets,
Is there anyone located in the Northern burbs of Chicago? I'm looking to break the ice and find my first investment property. However, I'm not finding anything on Zillow that's a good investment. Is there a better site or ideas on finding either houses, multi-unit properties, apartments.

Another option would be to make a deal happen. Just because it is listed at a certain price doesn't mean you have to pay that price.
I would look for a number that would make the property make sense for you then offer that. Also if you give two offers that still make sense for you, they may decide between the offers and not say no right away.
You will probably get turned down offers but someone may say yes and then you have a good property with the right financials if you analyzed it correctly.
