How can you cash flow in Chicago area?
I fix 'n flip in Chicago area and always want to get sucked into rentals. But when I run the numbers and account for EVERYTHING, the numbers don't add up.
Maybe I'm being too conservative but 1-200/month cash flow is what I'm ending up with. Add in turnover cost and I don't see how everyone is making money with rentals in IL.
Property taxes are through the roof; are you able to petition those down similar to your own residence?
