Paying for a Section 8 investment course is the equivalent of an aspiring cook paying for a course titled: How To Boil Water

Will you hire a cleaner or a personal chef to cook a meal once in a while?

You have to make 'sacrifices', maybe don't buy a $50K vehicle every 4 years, cook at home more often instead of eating out/ordering in, etc. 

Law enforcement is now targeting third parties involved in “cooking the books” that “force by fraud” qualify clients for Covid-19 relief.

Here in Cook and DuPage counties, rentals can pull 6-8% cap rates, which is solid.

Over the course of the year, it would be over 60% return and still cooking for many years after. 

A few “devil in the details” notes I see often on sub-$2M (mostly C-class/vintage): • Underwriting quirks: In Cook County, taxes can jump post-sale/reassessment—stress test NOI with +20–35% tax sensitivity and budget for appeals.

Hi all, I am using RentRedi for tenant screenings and receive this message for the criminal report for all my applicants: A criminal search cannot be completed for your applicant because certain local regulations necessitate the implementation of a 2-phase screening process and confirmation of implementing a 2-phase screening process has not been provided.I am in Cook County, IL and it recently became law that credit and other screenings have to be reviewed and accepted first before a criminal report can be viewed.

(likely Cook, who may be fired soon).
