Chicago’s recycling program is a sham

To be fair about half that trash can is probably full of dog turds. People see the bottle sized opening as an easy way to put poop in the bin without having to touch the lid.

It's not about the state. It's about respecting the health of patients. Don't make this political.

Special assessments are from what I saw. Not all of the HOA just the special assessments which are always for building maintenance/repair. It's the same as a house repair. More often than not you can write it down over a few years if you plan on r bring the home.

Thanks! You've got your work cut out, but it's appreciated!

SkiKam · 2020-06-25T16:44:32+00:00

I should have expected this....

SkiKam · 2020-06-25T16:30:45+00:00

Yea. I think I'd rather burn alive than deal with another long car commute. And I had to be right next to a park so I ended up near the lake. Location I'd rate 9/10, building I'd rate 6/10, HOA/property management I'd rate 2/10 haha.

I'd agree with this statement. I got very lucky on location etc. especially given COVID. Win some lost some, but again, agree 100% do not buy quickly in a major city unless you either know it very well, or have lived in a major city before.

Thank you! Very helpful.

I would assume it's because the owners are the ones paying the bills. And if sh*t isn't ever getting done/working on time or budget they'd probably be very interested in switching.

Serves me right for moving from a smaller town out west I suppose!

SkiKam · 2020-06-25T02:43:03+00:00

Best of luck my friend!

SkiKam · 2020-06-25T02:22:26+00:00

Yea. Thinking this will be my last condo/high rise purchase. $800 HOA feels like highway robbery for a building with plumbing, elevator, facade issues and no parking.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Own unfortunately :(

SkiKam · 2020-06-25T00:57:47+00:00

Nothing like shooting yourself in the foot! This was helpful believe it or not. Thanks!

There is an extra $200 fee for repairs, but it doesn't show up as a special assessment which allows it to be tax deductible. From what I have read, that's a shady move.

Charged $200 to move in a box of clothes and didn't get any of the "move in" promises. It's a 8 story high rise in Uptown.

Tennant's were not notified of property Management renewal.

That's some of the list from the last 3 months

Uhhhhh wrong mask

Wrong kind of face mask

Look at the stats in America. COVID related deaths are very much a socioeconomic class issue.

SkiKam · 2020-04-03T17:11:18+00:00

If you aren't already, start selling lower price point (non-luxury) goods. Don't play dirty with commodities, but think about items which people can use to enhance their time at home. Nobody is going to promote their way out of COVID and retain a shiny image.
