Rehab Checklist from CIC
We highly recommend that every prospective buyer download this 12-pg power-packed guide to repair costs. It is produced by the Community Reinvestment Corp of Chicago. CIC specializes in larger apartment buildings, but we think you will find this guide applies to any older building. We add this recommendation: Steve Hier, a leading property inspector in Chicago, says that he has found this guide to repair costs to be very accurate: We would add: we have never seen a better concise guide to property repair and updating..

Here are some books to check out:
  • The Millionaire Real Estate Investor (by Gary Keller, pulbished by McGraw Hill) is NOT one of our favorite books in that it tries to cover investment property everywhere in America--but if you are serious about wealth building, we think you will want to see the 21 profiles at the end--and reflect on the strategy each of these successful investors set.
  • If you are new to working with city apartments and Section 8, etc. we recommend Sandra Cisneros' The House on Mango Street (published in 1984 by Vintage Contemporaries). It shows in a profoundly human way the desire of people (in this case, poor people) for a decent place to raise a family.
