Real Estate Investment Property Markets
Find Real Estate Investment Properties For Sale in Illinois
Illinois investment property offers the real estate investor a number of choices - and one's sure to be a fit for your portfolio's needs. Boasting the fifth largest population in the United States, quality rental property options in Illinois can range from an executive high-rise condo on Lakeshore Drive in Chicago to a duplex in a quiet farming community like Moline or Peoria.
Illinois has the largest population of any midwest state (estimated in 2008 at 12,901,563) with a majority of the population living in the northeast corner of the state, most in the greater Chicago metropolitan area. Chicago proper had an estimated population of 2,836,658 in 2007, with an median home income of $45,505. It is the third largest city in the United States, and presents every possible opportunity you could think of if you are looking for Illinois investment property. Downtown condos and town homes are always available, as are single-family homes in quiet, tree-lined neighborhoods. As in any city this size, multi-unit structures are always a good option. The median gross rent for all of Chicago was $837 in 2007.
If you're looking for Illinois rental property outside of Chicago, you have a wide variety of options. Rockford, located 75 miles northwest, has 156,596 residents and an affordable $637 median gross rent. Peoria is known as the bellweather for being the most average city in America offers opportunities for buying rental houses, apartment buildings and even mobile homes. Whether it's the state capital of Springfield in the center, Carbondale to the south or the Quad Cities in the northwest, there are a variety of opportunities for purchasing investment properties in Illinois. Consult a real estate professional to get started.
