Northern DuPage County Market Summary I have been following along with interest over the last few months the Chicago Tribune and the ‘Price Pulse’ real estate sales snapshot.  This article in particular is for comparisons of August thru October 2008 and August thru October 2007.   This is for my areas and communities that I cover in DuPage County only. It mentions changes in median housing prices either an increase, no change (or no sales), or a decrease.  Now let’s go over what a median house price is – ½ the homes sold for more and ½ the homes sold for less. Bartlett          ▼    $253,000* Bloomingdale    ▲    $254,500 Carol Stream    ▼    $228,500 Glendale Heights    ▲    $180,000 Hanover Park    ▼    $190,000* Itasca    ▼    $261,500 Medinah    ▼    $295,000 Roselle    ▲    $230,00...

EVERY REAL ESTATE MARKET IS LOCAL.  ASK A SEASONED REALTOR, LIKE LYN SIMS, WHAT'S GOING ON LOCALLY! What if 2008 was the best year to buy real estate and you didn't do it?   This time may be your "best opportunity" market in years!  Mortgage interest rates are low and prices in Northwest Suburban Illinois are still holding fairly well, generally area prices are flat.  The median price home sale in Illinois is actually UP at $198,768*.  The Chicago Median Price for a home is $264,271* which is also UP.  NOT EVERYWHERE IN EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD ARE PRICES FALLING.  That's why I'm saying the real estate market is local - it even makes a difference from subdivision to subdivision in every single town!  But, over time and the long haul, no investment comes close to real estate so now is a great ...

Today's potential home buyers with lots of homes to choose from can be easily spooked by disclosures and the results of property inspections - even when the shortcomings are typical for homes of a certain age.In a jittery market such as this one, it's critical to give buyers tools and knowledge so they can decide which problems are serious.Agents do represent their clients but I always insist that my clients accompany the home inspector so they can put the problems in perspective. Anything a handyman or an electrician could fix in a few hours isn't really worth worrying about!  Buyers should be there to personally go thru the house and get first hand knowledge of any problems or repairs.  This gives buyers there first real chance to 'get accquainted' with their new home.Here are six com...

So your Selling Your Home ..... Sometimes, life just hands us the inevitable: just when everything seems right with your home, something happens and you have to sell it!  It could be that unbelievable job opportunity that you just can't pass up OR twins or triplets! No matter what your reasons are for selling, remember that now is no time to dawdle, the process of preparing a home for sale can take a month or more.  You've got work to do!  So, here's how to start:   1. Take a Fresh Look at Your Home Your home looks great to you, but a buyer wants to see it since he and his family will be living in it -- so take a fresh look at the house. Hop in your car, drive around the block, and then scrutinize your home as a prospective buyer will see it for the first time. First, consider what's ca...
