What have you found are the best areas to get buy-and-hold rentals in the Chicago area with good true cash flow?


Looking most at price to rent ratios with a combination of good area.

Prefer South and West Suburbs. I'm staying out of Englewood and the rough crime-infested areas in Chicago, no Harvey, Riverdale, Robbins, etc. 

What I've found is you can get good rents fro South Suburban towns but property taxes are so high in Dolton, Olympia Fields, etc. that it is hard to cash flow after accounting for maintenance and cap X.
