We’ve chattered about this large vintage 1-bedroom at 1450 N. Dearborn in the Gold Coast several times before. See our April 2010 chatter here. In our last chatter, most of you who commented thought it was still overpriced. Since that time, it has been reduced another $39,100. According to the latest listing, it has also been featured […]
We last chattered about this 4-bedroom single family home at 7237 S. South Shore in the South Shore neighborhood in January 2010 (hm…wonder why it always comes up as a post in the dead of winter?). See our prior chatter and interior pictures here. Built on a 50×300 lot, the property has 2 PIN numbers, one of which […]
Given the blizzard, who isn’t dreaming of the beach right now? This 2-bedroom townhouse at 5747 N. Sheridan in Edgewater has direct beach and bike trail access. While the listing says it “needs updating,” the townhouse has skylights, a private roof deck and a 2-car garage. One bedroom is on the top floor with the […]
The listing for this 4-bedroom newer construction single family home in the Residences of Old Irving Park at 4507 W.

This 5-bedroom new construction single family home at 1513 W. Huron has been on and off the market since July 2007. It now appears to be bank owned. Since July 2007, it has been reduced $625,000. From the pictures and the listing, it appears the kitchen is intact with stainless steel appliances and stone counter […]
In March 2010 we debated whether this 6-unit new construction building at 1005 W. Webster in Lincoln Park signaled a market bottom in Lincoln Park. It was a rare new construction development and the price points for the 3-bedroom units started at $699,000 and went as high as $875,000. See our prior chatter and pictures here. Many of […]

It has hardwood floors, central air and washer/dryer in the unit. From the pictures, it looks like only the refrigerator is missing in the kitchen. There […]

One of you thought it would need to be reduced another $50,000 due to the higher assessments and taxes. Another thought it […]
