This blog is being set-up as a record of my 1st investment property. A 4 bedroom, 1 bath, 1 1/2 story, brick house in Waukegan, Illinois. I’ve been a little slow on setting this up, but not much has happened to this point so I’ll be able to bring it up to date quickly. My new friend Mel has been pushing for this to happen so I’ll try and make him happy.
This story starts in October of 2007 with a comment by Rod, an employer friend of mine. He said something about an investment property would be a good fit for me. Something I had been thinking about off and on for years. Being the right time in my life, and his little shove sent me off full steam ahead. The first issue in buying something is having or having available lots of money. Getting money is where I’ll pick-up next time.
