Hi, @Jamaal SmithI've been in your shoes.

I was exactly in your shoes few months ago.  

Were I in your shoes, I'd still build a litigation budget and 12-18 months of title work into my analysis. 

In all seriousness, I will answer in the hopes that someone strolling through this post will not make a GRAVE mistake. 

Put yourself in the renters/guests shoes - where would they be looking?

It's like that kids game where you jot down all the steps to tie a shoe, and then give those directions to a friend and see if using only your directions he can tie your shoe...

By the end of this month, I’ll have saved up around $25,000, and I’m really eager to break into real estate.If you were in my shoes, how would you use that 25k to get started?

Then you get to file not one but TWO state income tax returns followed by the franchise fees and registration fees in Illinois.If I were in your shoes I would start researching the Illinois Land Trust to hold title to your properties.

The return on investment for MU's are higher than for single and this might give you the edge necessary to get financial interest.This is what I would do if I were in your shoes. 1.

What would you do if you were in my shoes?
