I'm glad to hear! Does your firm work with local wholesalers? 

@Lumi Ispas Thank you for the reference!

Hello Everybody!

I had a quick question for a the BP community! I am currently in the process of getting a purchase agreement with a seller. To have all my ducks in a row, I'm looking for a title company in the Chicagoland area that is familiar with back to back closing or doing a double escrow. I know I've read on some forums that most title companies don't do double escrow anymore. If anyone could point me in the right direction much would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Dillon Dinglasn

@Frank Wong

Providing a quality finished product that is also tenant proof would be a win win. Is there a way of determining the value of the property after are the updates?

Thanks for your feedback!

@Sam Shueh

I definitely agree that finding a old condo with low HOA fees will yield a higher return if i did mostly cosmetic upgrades.

Thanks!

Hey BP Community! 

Currently as of right now I am searching for my first rental property in the suburbs of Chicago. As condos being my only option right now, what are your views on forced appreciation on a 1b/1ba or 2b/1ba? Most improvements will be just cosmetics such as flooring, kitchen(cabinets, countertops etc.), lighting etc. Would the value of the property increase tremendously or no?

Thanks for your feedback,

Dillon D. 

Hello Everybody!

I wanted to get some feedback from the BP community and see what are your thoughts are on investing in your first property in a different states? Pros, cons, good areas to invest in, condos, SFH etc.?

Thanks!

@Bob Floss II Did your clients invest in the city of Chicago or more of the suburbs?

@Chandler Canepa Seems like your condo definitely appreciated in great value within 4 years!

@Scot Howat

Some of the condo units I'm looking at have high HOA's fees from 200-350. I'll be looking at condos ranging from 70-85k if the HOA fees are in the 200-350 range.
