If you recall, it was listed at $500,000 and bids were due within 72 hours. We debated the strategy of listing it for a low price and whether […]

This 2-bedroom in 2440 N. Lakeview in Lincoln Park recently came on the market. What I like about this site is that we often see the properties again several years later after renovations have been made. We chattered about this unit before, in September 2008, when it was listed as a renovation project. The prior listing said “Bring […]
