@Tucker Cummings all great information Tucker, thanks for the help! I will put some of those into action today.

@Account Closed currently in search for an educated realtor, do not have one yet. I am currently looking for properties on my own until I can find one. To be honest, I was just introduced to the turn key concept the other day! I have a limited knowledge base on the subject; have you had success with it?

Absolutely LOVE this advice Tucker! From a webinar I had been a part of, I feel that off-market is a great way to find a deal and can even work better in your favor if your a personable person. For off market properties, do owners still list their properties places or to find them I would have to drive around in my area? 

I am definitely going to house hack for my first investment for a couple years. And I already am accepting of the fact that I will mess up. That has proven the best form of education in my lifetime so I am not afraid of any bumps in the road along my journey.

Thanks again for the tips! Lets connect and discuss further if you'd like.

 I appreciate that tip John. Essentially become extremely knowledgable on where I want to live first, then start expanding once I have a strong knowledge base. 

@Brandon Gore Thanks for the support! I would love to connect further - I want to learn as much as I can from as many different people as I can. 

@Paul De Luca Yes I am looking to house hack for a couple years! Those are all areas that I would be open to looking at. I would also already have one person moving in and renting from me as well no matter where I go (which is a plus). Would love to connect further if you're interested! 

@Jonathan Klemm thanks for the warm welcome! I would love to connect further and learn more about yourself and the path we are both heading down.

@Henry Lazerow thanks for your input! That seems to be the consensus that I have gained from the community. Do you have any locations I can look further into around the outer Chicago area? Not looking to live in the city, but also want to stay somewhat close to the suburbs for family!

@John Warren Thank you! I really appreciate your feedback and support! I am looking to learn and maximize my opportunities in anyway that I can. I am looking to move out on my own as soon as possible, but understand it won't be a quick nor easy process with how the market is. Do you have an opinion on when you see the market changing?
