We last chattered about this new(er) construction building at 2408 W. Rice in West Town last summer. Built in 2008 with 12 units and an elevator on the corner of Rice and Western, it was originally marketed as condos but went rental in the bust. Last summer, some units came on the market and finally […]

We chattered about this Fannie Mae-owned 3-bedroom townhouse at 642 N. Armour in West Town several times last year. See our November 2012 chatter here. Back then, it was listed for $309,000 but most of you thought, given its condition and the neighborhood, that it would sell in the low $200,000s. Most of you thought […]

We’ve chattered about this 2-bedroom contemporary at 919 N. Wolcott in West Town several times over the years. Check out our August 2011 chatter here. Is it just me or are a lot of properties coming back on the market that tried to sell a few years ago but couldn’t? And it seems like they […]

We last chattered about this 2-bedroom at 2157 W. Division in West Town about a year ago, in May 2012. See our prior chatter here. If you remember, at that point, the unit seemed to be developer owned and had been on and off the market for 5 years. The building is a 6-unit elevator […]
