First American CoreLogic just released its first quarter report on negative equity in the United States. The Chicago market has more homeowners underwater than you would think (and I don’t know if this means Chicago, the city, or the entire Chicagoland area.) The metropolitan markets with the most underwater home owners in first quarter were: […]
This 2-flat at 1823 W. Cornelia in Roscoe Village first came on the market in March 2010. The listing now says it is a “pre-foreclosure” and priced for a quick sale. Apparently it worked as it is now under contract the day it was reduced. The 2-flat consists of the following: 3 bedrooms, 2 bath duplex up […]

The unit had all the bells and whistles including central air and an in-unit […]
