Hoffman Estates Illinois Homes - $450,000 and up - Is anything selling?  Update for the Luxury Home Market
Well, to answer your question, YES!  There have been 33 sales so far this 2008 year for the $450,000 and up single family market.  What are some marketing tips that you might want to know about if you are planning on selling your home?

Out of the total 33 sales, 8 homes were built before 1999.  Out of those 8 sales, 4 mentioned that they were totally remodeled (see great kitchen pictures) and had reasonable market times. 

Out of the 33 … (3 comments)

hoffman estates illinois real estate: Hoffman Estates Illinois Buyers - A tip for peace of mind - Home Warranty - Buyers Agent Lyn Sims (847)230-7324 - 12/19/08 12:29 PM
WHAT IS A HOME WARRANTY AND HOW DOES IT WORK? WHAT WILL IT DO FOR ME AS A BUYER?
A home warranty can give a purchaser peace of mind.  If anything catastrophic happens in the house, you are only financially liable for the deductible.  So if the furnace goes out one evening and you just can't get it going (as long as it is maintained and not abused) you would call the warranty company and they would send out a technician to fix/repair/replace the furnace depending on the problem.  So yes, if the furnace did indeed blow up (heat exchanger) you … (1 comments)

hoffman estates illinois real estate: Hoffman Estates Local Market - Hoffman Estates Illinois Real Estate - Lyn Sims (847)230-7324 - Hoffman Estates Realtor - 11/01/08 02:05 PM
EVERY REAL ESTATE MARKET IS LOCAL.  ASK A SEASONED REALTOR, LIKE LYN SIMS, WHAT'S GOING ON LOCALLY!
What if 2008 was the best year to buy real estate and you didn't do it?  
This time may be your "best opportunity" market in years!  Mortgage interest rates are low and prices in Northwest Suburban Illinois are still holding fairly well, generally area prices are flat.  The median price home sale in Illinois is actually UP at $198,768*.  The Chicago Median Price for a home is $264,271* which is also UP. 
NOT EVERYWHERE IN EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD ARE PRICES FALLING.  That's why I'm saying the … (0 comments)

SO WHAT'S UP WITH THE REAL ESTATE MARKET?

Interested in getting a copy of the best overall market information and real estate sales conditions that I could find recently?  It’s an article from Chicago Magazine’s October Issue "What's your House Worth" that just came out and offers extensive data on each town and neighborhood in the Chicagoland area.   What makes this article important is that it is compiled from the local MLS (MRED) not some of these other hallucinating websites like zillow, yahoo real estate, etc. where they never seem to actually know where their numbers come from.  Accuracy is … (7 comments)
