Buying and renovating vintage homes isn’t something that is done only in gentrifying neighborhoods. Take this 1887 John Wellborn Root Queen Anne mansion at 1308 N. Astor in the Gold Coast. Bought in 2006, it has been extensively rehabbed with a new kitchen and baths. Look at those floors! First listed in May 2007, it […]

Unit #1008, a 2-bedroom, 2 bath, has been reduced by $89,900 and appears to be “cheap” at only $450,000. But is it? The last 08 tier unit sold in August 2008 for $420,500. It was bank-owned. See our prior chatter […]
