We last chattered about this 6-bedroom 2007 construction mansion at 2461 N.

Since that time, a lis pendens foreclosure was filed against the […]

We last chattered about this contemporary Studio Dwell designed 4-bedroom single family home at 915 N. Wolcott in the East Village in June 2011. See our prior chatter here. Most of you loved this house. But we still debated about whether this home would sell for under its 2005 price of $1.38 million (and whether a […]
This 3-bedroom 67th floor unit in Trump Tower at 401 N. Wabash in River North just came on the market. Crain’s recently had a tidbit about it in its Chicago Real Estate Daily because the seller only bought it 10 months ago – in December 2010. Two doctors put their condo in the Trump International Hotel […]
