Straight Up Chicago Investor


Aug 6, 2020

After selling a successful logistics company, and actively investing in real estate, Jake Fugman has carved a niche as a high-performing investor-friendly agent. In this episode, Jake provides a ton of market knowledge and deep insights into many desirable and upcoming Chicago neighborhoods, including Hermosa, Belmont Gardens, Portage Park, Marshall Square, Pilsen, Little Village, along with several southern suburbs where his investors find success. 

Jake walks through the pros/cons of house-hacking in each area and also provides valuable NUGGETS in regards to underwriting and expectations. If you are looking to house-hack, invest in small-multis in the city, or SFH in the South Suburbs, this episode will not disappoint.
