We’ve chattered about this vintage conversion building at 433 W. Briar in Lakeview several times. We’ve been following Unit #3C, a 1650 square foot 2-bedroom for nearly a year. See our February 2008 chatter about the building (with pictures) here. See our September 2008 chatter about price reductions in the building (with pictures) here. Unit […]
Are the condo conversions and new construction properties the most at risk of price declines in this housing market? This 3-bedroom 2007 vintage conversion at 646 W. Wellington in East Lakeview just came on the market and has already had one price reduction. It is now listed for only $9,000 above its 2007 selling price. It […]
This circa 1915 2-bedroom co-op unit at 3560 N. Pine Grove has great vintage bones: a sunroom, fireplace and a coved ceiling in the dining room. It’s also been on the market for 9 months and has been reduced $30,000. It has the always vital central air and an in-unit washer/dryer. For a co-op building, it also […]
This 2-bedroom vintage unit in 3520 N. Lake Shore Drive in Lakeview just came on the market in January and it’s already under contract. The unit is missing the things that usually sell properties. It has no central air, no in-unit washer/dryer and no parking. But it does have direct lake views. Was it priced to […]
One year ago, we chattered about this 8000 square feet, 7-bedroom new construction single family home in Lakeview at 336 W. Oakdale. It has been on and off the market since 2006. See the pictures and our prior chatter here. It’s still available and has now been reduced $1.04 million since its listing in 2006 and […]
We last chattered about this 3-bedroom penthouse with a 90-foot wrap-around deck at 1735 W. Diversey in Lakeview (or is it Lincoln Park?) in July 2008. See our prior chatter and pictures here. It is still on the market and has been reduced at total of $85,900 since the fall of November 2007. It’s also […]
It’s not just the penthouse in The Brewster at 2800 N. Pine Grove in Lakeview that isn’t selling. We last chattered about this 2-bedroom remodeled unit last June. See the pictures and our chatter here. Since then, it has been reduced another $6,000. It also is not currently on the MLS- but it is on Craigslist. Here’s […]
They just don’t build them like this anymore. And we love to look at them. This 4-bedroom, 4000 square foot vintage unit in 3400 N. Lake Shore Drive in Lakeview still has the original mahogany millwork, plaster and paneling. It also has all the modern conveniences: central air, washer/dryer and parking. What more can you ask […]
We last chattered about The Vic Lofts at 3150 N. Sheffield in Lakeview in May 2008. At that time, we discussed 4 different units. Since then, 2 of the 4 have sold for under their prior 2006 sales prices. 2 others are still on the market, with both significantly reduced by $30,000 and $35,000, respectively. […]
