We last chattered about this 7-unit vintage building at 448 W. Wrightwood in June 2011 when a first floor unit was being marketed as being like the apartment in the movie “The Break-Up.” (which was actually filmed on a sound stage) Unit #1, a 3/2 with 2100 square feet sold within 5 months, in June […]
This 3-bedroom at 990 N. Lake Shore Drive in Streeterville recently came on the market. Built in 1973 on the corner of Walton and Lake Shore Drive, it is a southeast corner unit with lake and Navy Pier views. It has a few interesting features including solar panel shades in the living and dining rooms. […]
We last chattered about this 3-bedroom at 6 N. Michigan across from Millennium Park in the Loop in January 2012. See our prior chatter here. Back then, many of you were confused by the layout (thinking it was a 2-bedroom with den) and that the finishes weren’t up to other units in the building. If […]

The consensus was: “no” […]

Louise came on the market in April 2012. Built in 1924, it has many of its original details including a wood burning fireplace, french doors and […]
We last chattered about this 3-bedroom single family home at 3902 N. Central Park in the Independence Park neighborhood of Irving Park in November 2011. See our chatter here.

We’ve chattered about this 3-bedroom top floor unit at 2817 N. Orchard in Lakeview several times before. See our March 2012 chatter here. After the last price reduction to $400,000, some of you thought anywhere from $325k to $375k gets the job done. It has now been reduced to $389,900. If you recall, this is […]
