Taxpayers paid nearly $600,000 to rehab this three-bedroom, two-bathroom house at 4419 N. Kimball Ave. in Chicago's Albany Park neighborhood with amenities like granite countertops and hardwood floors -- and it wound up selling for less than $200,000, an investigation by the Chicago Reporter found. More was spent on this single home than on rehabbing homes in the entire Roseland neighborhood, the Reporter found. (Photo: SpotProperty)
