First Time Investor Moving to Joliet IL
I just found out that I will be moving to Joliet IL this August. I am looking to purchase my first investment property within several months. I plan on purchasing a 3 to 4 bedroom single family that I can live in, fix up, and sell after a year or two. I was also hoping to rent 1 or 2 of the bedrooms while living there.
I would appreciate any advice on location (prefer within 20 minutes of Joliet) or other useful information that may help.

Unlike most suburbs (which tend to be fairly uniform and homogeneous), Joliet is a real city. Like Chicago, there are good and bad areas. Thus it is very important to understand the different neighborhoods before you start investing. Good luck!
