Crib Chatter

We last chattered about this large duplex 2-bedroom at 615 W. Deming in Lincoln Park in August 2008. See our prior chatter and pictures here. It sold in August 2007 and was re-listed less than a year later for $50,000 over the 2007 sale price. It is still on the market and has been reduced […]

This 2-bedroom duplex unit just came on the market at 350 W. Belden in Lincoln Park. It is bank-owned. It is listed for $148,100 less than the 2005 purchase price. The listing says it needs some “TLC” and there are no pictures of the kitchen. However, the listing describes the kitchen as having cherry cabinets and […]

We chattered about this 3-bedroom vintage unit at 2127 N. Sheffield in Lincoln Park over a year ago- in March 2008. At that time, it was being marketed more as an investment-type unit for DePaul students due to the three bedrooms. See our prior chatter and pictures here. It is now back on the market and […]

As some of you have pointed out in the comments section, the much talked about vintage rowhouse at 410 W. Webster in a prime area of East Lincoln Park has closed. See our prior chatter here.  See some pictures here. It sold for $13500 less than its 2004 purchase price. Jennifer Ames and the Ames […]

Sometimes, the price reductions can be death by a thousand cuts. But in the case of this vintage 2-bedroom loft-like unit at 1445 W. Belden in Lincoln Park, it went for the “drama” price cut- reducing $70,000 in one swoop. The unit has 15-foot ceilings, a renovated kitchen with Miele, Wolf and Subzero appliances, parking, central air but […]

We first chattered about this 3-bedroom greystone vintage unit at 2523 N. Burling in Lincoln Park in April 2008. Someone said then that it would sell for near the asking price of $600,000. See our prior chatter and pictures here. The unit has remained on the market ever since and has been reduced $70,000. It is […]

This 3-bedroom duplex down condominium at 915 W. Wrightwood in Lincoln Park is as large as many single family homes at 2500 square feet but without the maintenance hassles associated with single family home living. This has been a popular option for many buyers who want decent square footage but want to stay in prime neighborhoods. […]

We chattered about this 2000 square foot townhouse at 2325 N. Wayne in Lincoln Park in February 2009. See our prior chatter here. You can see pictures of similar townhouses in the Lakewood Commons community in our earlier chatter here. This townhouse looked similar to the others in the prior post. There was a den on […]

This 2-bedroom vintage unit at 917 W. Webster in Lincoln Park is already under contract after less than 2-weeks on the market. A tipster told me that it had multiple offers. It seems to have all the bells and whistles with central air, an in-unit washer/dryer and parking in a prime Lincoln Park location. However, it’s […]

This 2-bedroom Italianate vintage condo at 916 W. Fullerton in the heart of DePaul in Lincoln Park just came on the market. But it’s been on the market before. It was first listed in February 2007 and has been on and off the market ever since. It’s only been reduced by $25,000 in that time […]
