Many of you will remember this 1905 renovated vintage building at 928 W. Eastwood in Uptown. We’ve chattered about the foreclosures there several times. See our November 2008 chatter and pictures here. Last November, two of the first floor 3-bedroom units were bank-owned and selling for “only” $80,000 each. Unit #1E sold in January 2009. But […]
Some of you have been chattering a lot lately about multi-unit buildings. This 1898 greystone 2-flat at 5207 N. Magnolia in the historic Lakewood Balmoral District in Edgewater has good vintage bones. The building still has the original woodwork, leaded glass and built-ins. The first floor unit is 2 bedrooms, 1 bath while the second […]
We’ve chattered about this 3-bedroom vintage unit at 2910 N. Pine Grove in Lakeview several times before. Since December 2008, it’s been reduced by $50,000.

This 585 square foot studio unit at 330 W. Grand in River North just came on the market as a short sale. The listing says it is a “good opportunity for an investor.” Is it? Nice studios rent fairly quickly in River North (if they’re priced “right.”) Nicholas Katsafados at R.E.I.T. Homes has the listing. […]

Remember our favorite bank-owned Gold Coast coach house at 1234 N. Dearborn? See our October 2008 chatter and pictures here. It’s not too late to own it. The bank has reduced it $105,000 since May 2008. It’s now listed $50,000 below the 2000 sales price. Is this finally a “deal”? A.D.S. Realty now has the […]
