This 3-bedroom duplex down at 1069 N. Marshfield in the East Village neighborhood of West Town has been on the market for about a month. In that time, it has been reduced $5100. The unit is now $27,100 under the 2004 purchase price. At 2500 square feet, it has more square footage than many single family homes […]
We last chattered about this 3-bedroom unit right in the heart of Taylor Street at 1408 W. Taylor in November 2010. See our prior chatter here.

Townhouses seem to be hotter than condos right now, especially those priced in the $400,000s. But what about townhouses like this 2-bedroom in the Lakewood Commons development at 2357 N. Wayne in Lincoln Park that is priced just slightly above that? It’s been on the market since February 2011 and has been reduced $50,000. It is […]

Many of you are fans of this unique 4-bedroom Chicago bungalow at 5501 W. Cullom in Portage Park. We’ve been chattering about Portage Park recently so it makes sense to, once again, chatter about this home. Originally on the market in July 2009- we last chattered about it in May 2010 after it finally sold. […]

At $485,000, it is still among the 10 most expensive listings in the Portage Park neighborhood. Built in 1906, the house still has some […]
We’ve chattered about other Lincoln Park McCormick Rowhouses, specifically those on Belden, but this 5-bedroom rowhouse at 925 W. Fullerton recently came on the market. Built in 1890, the brick rowhouse is on a 23×120 lot. The McCormick Rowhouses have been designated a landmark district by the city. The listing says it has been “restored”. The […]
We chattered about this vintage 2-bedroom at 2861 N. Burling in Lakeview several times as the unit was on and off the market since March 2010. See our February 2011 chatter here. Back in February, it returned to the market to try again and was further reduced to $299,900 The kitchen was not renovated and […]
