hoffman estates il homes: Hoffman Estates IL Real Estate - What have home prices done? - 02/24/12 02:27 PM
There's been much talk (chatter by the national talking heads) in the media about our Northwest Suburban and Hoffman Estates home values returning to a previous level. I read these reports constantly, day in and day out and wonder to myself 'How do they know this stuff when I don't even know it!'Real estate is unique in that it is very local in nature. In fact, real estate is so unique it can even be broken down further to say that neighborhoods even in the same town will been effected differently. What happens in one subdivision doesn't necessary happen in another. … (14 comments)

hoffman estates il homes: Hoffman Estates IL Homes - Should I rent or should I buy? - 12/06/11 04:37 PM
Buying wins!  At least here in our Northwest Suburban Chicago Area. Hoffman Estates home prices and mortgage rates have fallen so far that the monthly cost of owning a home is more affordable than at any point in the past 15 years and is less expensive than renting in a growing number of cities. If you are a buyer why not take advantage of this opportunity? Ok, you're skeptical, here is more ammo that purchasing is a great idea!
But the current Hoffman Estates market situations gives you as a buyer great opportunities that have never been seen before.  Homes that … (4 comments)

hoffman estates il homes: Hoffman Estates IL Real Estate - What's the market doing now? - 10/24/11 09:17 AM
Signs of life in our Hoffman Estates Real Estate Market recently.  We are moving ahead and sales have finally reached above the 2010 level of closings.  For the 3rd Quarter of 2011 Hoffman Estates Single Family Homes are 20% above 2010 closings and Hoffman Estates Multi-Family are an amazing 45% over 2010.As of yet there are still no price gains that I can see with the foreclosures still leading the way in current sales. If all goes well, the next trend will be for prices to finally level off and slight increases to begin.  This also would depend on how much … (5 comments)

Short Sales for Dummies!  This is a great Short Sale Q & A from an agent in California, Debbie Lynn.  She says it so well in her explanation that I thought I would repost it for your reading.

hoffman estates il homes: Hoffman Estates IL Real Estate - Market Update September 2010 - 10/04/10 03:25 PM
How to describe this market for Hoffman Estates IL Homes?  Unbelievable! A now retired agent in my office used to say this to encompass every conceivable change or option and still stay positive!  I'm going to loudly reiterate that phrase to update you on recent Hoffman Estates IL Home sales.Over the last 3 months, inventory for Hoffman Estates IL Homes was down at 9 months and finally ending at 11.5 months.  Added inventory is going to make your home take longer to sell (especially going into the winter months).  More inventory is great for buyers but not welcomed obviously as a seller.  Keeps … (1 comments)

hoffman estates il homes: The Sale Of Your House Could Depend On The Answer To This Question - 04/06/10 07:00 PM
 
How does your home look standing on the sidewalk? Is the front of your home welcoming or does it say 'No one's lived here for quite some time?'
First impressions count - make it lasting as you won't get a second chance.  Great staging advice from Sharon Tara in New Hampshire.
 
Via Sharon Tara New Hampshire Home Stager (Sharon Tara Transformations):
Do you know which door is the most important door when it comes to marketing your house for sale?  It's the door that potential buyers will be using to enter your house.  It's the door where the infamous  "first impression" is made.
