@Mike Derer 

Thanks for the feedback, hope to see you there on 4/17. 

No worries if you can't make it, we should have another one on the 3rd week of May.

@David Sisson

Have you double check with the local municipality if there're any violations on this building? 

If it's historic, are there restrictions to what you're planning to do?  rezoning? 

Any liens, past tax dues etc?

The buyer determines the price he/she wants to pay.

Ask 3 professional appraisers what the appraised value of a property is, and most likely you'll get 3 different values.

Give notice and start fresh. 

No way you can rehab a unit with a tenant in it. Plus the liability of it.

For anyone, working downtown Chicago, who is interested in networking? Please let me know. 

My wife and I are buy and hold investors, but still have W2 jobs. We have done flips, private lending, lease options etc. I also help host a monthly meetup in DG, which is 100% networking. 

As the weather gets nicer, I would love to chat real estate while walking around our great city! 

I am not interested in selling you anything, so I don't want anyone trying to sell me something either. Just looking to grow my network and exchange ideas / experiences.

The Du Page County Real Estate Investors group was started 3 years ago to provide a platform for Du Page County (and surrounding areas) real estate investors to share knowledge, resources, and deals.The members of this group are involved in primarily single family, multifamily and commercial investments, and represent all levels of experience. The focus of the group is professional networking.


Our meetup is at Emmett's Ale House, 5200 Main Street, Downers Grove, IL 60515 from 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm. There is a parking lot across the street and in the back of the restaurant that we are allowed to use.

These events are 100% networking. If you have a deal where you need a partner you will have the opportunity to present it to the group.
