How it Works

With higher real estate prices and lower-than-average job and population growth, the Windy City may not seem like a “good” place to invest in real estate. That being said, it is one of the few cities in the nation where housing prices still haven’t risen above their 2006 levels. When focusing on finding the highest capital growth and cash flow, you’ll find some Chicago neighborhoods offer homes at $108,000-$130,000 with rents at 1.17% of the purchase price every month. All of this is good news for investors looking for under market value properties, with tremendous monthly cash flow, and poised for steady appreciation.
