This 3-bedroom duplex in No. 9 Walton at 9 W. Walton in the Gold Coast came on the market in August 2024 and was recently re-listed.

Built in 2017, No. 9 Walton was the most successful new construction luxury building in over a decade. It has just 66 units and attached valet parking.

It’s a full amenity building which this listing says includes: “24-hour door staff, house car, 2-story fitness facility, indoor pool, sauna and steam, golf simulator, dining room with catering kitchen, bar and terrace. Two guest suites available, plus fabulous indoor/outdoor dog run.”

This unit has 3693 square feet on two levels and lives like a single family home.

It has northern exposures.

The property has custom lighting, designer window treatments, millwork and hardwood floors on both levels.

The main floor includes the living room, dining room, kitchen, a den, family room and half bath.

The bedrooms, and the laundry room, are on the second floor. All three bedrooms are en suite.

The primary suite has a marble spa bath with a soaking tub, walk-in-shower, dual sinks and built-out dressing room.

Back on the first floor, it has a foyer and a fireplace in the living room flanked by custom DeGiulio drybar with wine refrigeration.

The kitchen is open to the dining room and has white O’Brien Harris cabinetry, iceberg quartzite countertops and backsplash, a large island with seating for three, SubZero and Wolf appliances and an attached breakfast room.

One of the big selling points of this building were the large, covered private terraces.

This unit has a 300 square foot terrace with an overhead heater and gas hook-up which overlooks the Gold Coast shops and restaurants.

It has the features buyers look for including central air, its own laundry room, and one valet parking space is included and a second one is available to purchase.

The building is near the shops and restaurants of Oak and Rush Street as well as the Mag Mile and is steps from Washington Square Park. There are several bus lines nearby.

Luxury real estate has been hot in Chicago and the suburbs. Crain’s Chicago Business keeps track of sales over $4 million each year.

You can read all about it from Dennis Rodkin at Crain’s here.

As of June 30, 2025, a record 76 homes have sold over $4 million in the city and suburbs. That is up from just 43 homes last year and is beating the pace of 2022, when 72 homes sold in the first half.

This unit was originally listed in August 2024 for $4.995 million. It has been reduced to $4.79 million.

That is just $179,000 over the 2018 sales price of $4.611 million.

Is this a deal?

This 2-bedroom in Olympia Center at 161 E. Chicago in Streeterville came on the market in June 2025.

Olympia Center was built in 1985 and was, at the time, one of the top luxury buildings in Streeterville/River North. It has 292 units and attached rental parking.

• Party room

The listing says this unit is a masterpiece transformation. It has undergone a “complete 2025 total renovation from the concrete and the studs.”

It’s a corner unit with South and East views which includes Lake Michigan, Navy Pier and the southern skyline’s high rises.

The listing calls it a 3/3 unit but it is also listed as a 2/2.5. Prior to the transformation, it was a 2-bedroom. The old “breakfast room” is now a “den.”

The den has no closet, however.

The third bathroom is a full bathroom now. A walk-in-shower was added to the half bath location.

The unit has 7″ white oak hardwood floors throughout.

It has all new single panel doors with black door hardware.

There is a primary suite with a walk-in-closet and an en suite bathroom with a floating dual vanity with LED lit mirror and a LEIVI toilet with electric bidet.

The listing goes into a LOT of details about each bathroom, which I’m leaving out.

There is an open kitchen with wood and white cabinets, an “enormous” island with custom waterfall edge, 1.25 inch Quartzite counter tops, custom gold hardware, a stainless steel Bosch appliance package with French door refrigerator with ice/water dispenser.

It has a stove hood.

The unit has the features buyers look for including central air and a laundry room with a full size stackable washer/dryer and a storage cabinet. Parking is available in the building.

There is no private outdoor space.

Olympia Center is above the Neiman Marcus on Michigan Avenue. It is near the shops and restaurants of Michigan Avenue, Streeterville and River North as well as numerous bus lines.

There are currently 13 units for sale in the building.

Buyers love “new.”

This unit has come on the market at $1,195,029.

Did this renovation get the finishes right for this building and price point?

This Illinois Association of Realtors is out with the May data.

As we know, inventory remains tight and sales remain low. Year-over-year sales fell again, but so did inventory.

It was the slowest May for sales since May 2020, when the real estate market was spooked at the start of the pandemic.

The city of Chicago experienced a 7.4 percent year-over-year sales decrease in May 2025 with 2,286 sales, down from 2,468 in May 2024. The median price of a home in the city of Chicago in May 2025 was $390,000, an 8.3 percent increase from May 2024 when the median price was $360,000.

May Sales:

• May 2008: 2119 sales
• May 2009: 1557 sales
• May 2010: 2057 sales

“We continue to see the impact of low inventory on Chicago’s housing market, with fewer closed sales and steady buyer activity keeping prices on the rise,” said Erika Villegas, president of the Chicago Association of REALTORS® and broker and owner of RE/MAX In The Village. “Well-priced homes are still moving quickly, buyers and sellers alike should work closely with their REALTOR® to adapt their strategies in this fast-paced, competitive market.”

More condos are selling than single family homes in Chicago.

The mix of the sales:

• 1,486 condo sales, down 10%
• 800 single family home sales, down 2.1%

On pricing, median condo prices were up 4.4% to $412,500 while single family home prices were up 9.4% to $350,000.

Statewide, inventory continues to edge higher but it was coming off the all-time lows. Inventory rose 6% to 19,890 homes from 18,758 last year.

In 2025, statewide inventory is driven by the 9-county Chicagoland inventory, which rose 3.4% to 13,195 from 12,754.

However, the city of Chicago bucked the trend of rising inventory as it fell 13.2%.

• May 2019: 10,096
• May 2022: 7,115
• May 2023: 5,073
• May 2024: 4,934
• May 2025: 4,284

Will we see a “3” handle on inventory sometime this year?

I’ve been talking about the “available” inventory on Redfin for several months for some of the popular GreenZone neighborhoods.

As of June 29, 2025, Lincoln Park has 141 properties available and Lakeview had 194.

Lincoln Park has been between 125 and 150 for months. Lakeview had been 200-225 until recently where it dipped under 200.

These are at ALL price points.

If a buyer is looking in the popular $400,000 to $500,000 price range in Lakeview for a 2/2, there are just 5 properties available.

Going up to $600,000, the number of properties available was just 12.

You can see why there are bidding wars.

For those of you who were around during the housing bubble years, it’s shocking that there’s virtually no new construction on the market with the exception of a few small luxury buildings where units start over $1 million.

There are also no new downtown condo buildings under construction for the first time in 10 years. However, developers still have available units in several buildings that have finished construction.

Current inventory in River North (which doesn’t include everything because developers don’t list all of their units on the MLS)  is just 303 units.

In Streeterville, it is 254 homes.

“Our three-month forecast expects home sales in Illinois to rise nearly 4 percent between June and August compared to last year. Prices are expected to remain relatively flat over the summer months, but end August roughly 7 percent higher year-over-year,” said Geoff Smith, Executive Director, Institute for Housing Studies at DePaul University in Chicago.

“In May 2025, Illinois single-family inventories experienced their 13th consecutive month of year-over year growth. Despite this, the state has seen one of the weakest recoveries to pre-pandemic inventory levels. Tight statewide inventories suggest that the market will remain highly competitive, but sustained inventory growth and increased days on market could be indications of improving conditions for homebuyers.”

The 30-year fixed rate mortgage was 6.82% in May 2025, up from 6.73% in April but down from 7.06% in May 2024.

In some states, inventory is rising quickly and is back to 2019 pre-covid levels.

When will Chicago see it rise?
