So Now Kevin is jumping into the Aviation crash U tube scene like commenting on Air India flight like he knows LOL  Sell the sizzle.

I have a client that bought a house in Ann Arbor that rents out to U of M students.

U hit all the high points..

U don't want to invest in a market that has a median of 250k then buy a 120k property logic will dictate the price point sets for RISK and desirability.. 

Grande  u tube and how he starts each show with his disclaimers.. 

I live in Phoenix, AZ but I buy & sell properties all over the U.

I own heights, memorial park, rice/West U and some acres home.

Do u have associates that may be interested in the Southern IL region?

And your going to find it hard to get the associated debt you would need to qualify for the loans  unless your using DSCR rent then you need a lot of cash since U need the debt coverage ratios..

U just dont spread sheet for a lot fo this stuff .
