Why Cicero
Why We Buy Multifamily In Cicero
When we underwrite a Cicero property, we start with the demand behind it — industrial and manufacturing employers along Cicero Avenue, quick access to the Loop via the CTA Pink Line, and Morton College and local retail corridors.
Bordering Chicago’s West Side, Cicero is a dense, predominantly Latino town with a rental stock of classic brick two-flats, three-flats, and courtyard apartment buildings. Tenant demand is deep and durable, so the main challenges for buyers are older building systems and tight margins.
In Hawthorne and Warren Park as much as Berwyn, we are open to buildings with deferred maintenance, below-market rents, or occupancy problems.

- Cook County handles assessment for Cicero properties, so we check the current assessed value and how a sale may change it.

Cicero Seller FAQ
Which parts of Cicero do you buy in?
We look across the city and its surroundings — Berwyn, Hawthorne, Clyde, and Warren Park — and we will review a property outside those areas on its own merits.
Why is Cicero a good place to own rentals?
The renter base in Cicero draws on industrial and manufacturing employers along Cicero Avenue, quick access to the Loop via the CTA Pink Line, and Morton College and local retail corridors, which gives well-run apartment buildings a steady pool of tenants.
What if my Cicero building has vacancies or deferred maintenance?
That is often where we add the most value. We buy buildings that need renovation, new management, or lease-up, and we account for that in our offer.
