Do you think buying a lot/land in a major city could be a good real estate investment?

Posted on October 7, 2011 by admin| 3 Comments

I live in Chicago and already have bought a couple preconstruction condos as an investment. I have seen some land/lots for sale for what seems like reasonable prices in areas that have potential to be “up-and-coming” areas. What do you think, in general, about how how good of an investment land is? Would you recommend building on it, or waiting until the cost of the land appreciates a good amount and then flipping it? Do any of you own or have owned land as an investment in a city? What are some of the things I should consider, in this kind of investment?

Trash in the hall of the building?

Posted on September 20, 2011 by admin| 4 Comments

I live in the 2nd floor of a three family building. The neighboor downstairs started placing some stuff outside her door like it was part of her apartment. They have a small old table, a huge mirror, shoes, coats, bags of old clothes, old newspaper and magazines and much more. They also had a pumpkin since last halloween that after I complained to the landlord, he took the pumpkin 2 weeks ago. The landlord said that he left a message to this tenants to clean the area, but I don’t think it’s true. I was thinking to call the Health Board but I’m affraid to get in trouble with the landlord because I live here for 2 years and he never raised my rent and I also have a good area outside for my dog. Any suggestions?
