Stop right there and start looking for your new home here!Roselle Townhome and Condo foreclosures are 'better priced values' and are being scooped up the fastest.  Thinking that now is the time to make a move?  Interest rates are now the lowest they've ever been.  I know you're saying to yourself 'but you guys told us that last year?'  Well, the interest rates were low then and now they are even LOWER.  Just a few months ago we were quoting an interest rate of 5.125% and now we can say the rate is now at 4.125% which is a full percent … (1 comments)

Roselle IL Homes - Roselle IL Real Estate Market Update 2010 How to describe this market for Roselle IL Homes?  Unfortunately, up ... down ... all around!Over the final quarter of 2010, inventory for Roselle IL Homes was up substantially to 20.5 then down to 9.7 months then ending up at 12.0.  Where did a large portion of these homes go?  I think that sellers have taken their homes off the market and decided not to move or the sellers have become 'reluctant' landlords in order to continue with their future plans.  The problem is not solved, only postponed to a future … (2 comments)

roselle il real estate: Roselle Homes - What were the results of the Tax Credit? - 07/26/10 08:17 PM
What's the results of the tax credit with Roselle Home Buyers? I've been waiting to write this update now for quite sometime on Roselle Home Sales and to be honest, it sure is a let down!  Yep, anti-climactic end to the Home Buyers Tax Credit.  Like a sharp object aimed at a balloon, it's a total fizzle (or as Snoop Dogg would say 'a total furrrschnizzle').The graph illustrates sales for single family and multi-family Roselle Homes from January to June 2010.  With all the media hype, I would have expected better numbers.  What I see here is the standard increases that we … (7 comments)

roselle il real estate: Roselle IL Homes - How long will it take for my home to sell? - 01/11/10 04:02 PM
This is the 'Months Supply of Inventory' for Roselle IL Single Family Homes for 2009.
This number is also called the 'Conversion Rate' or the 'Absorption Rate' which is how long and how much inventory is on the market in that particular town. Obviously, the higher the rate, the longer the market time for homes in that community.

Does your agent know the 'Absorption Rate' and will they share that information with you? It shouldn't be kept a secret because it plays a pivotal role in how your home should be marketed.

So we obviously have different levels of 'Absorption' … (3 comments)

roselle il real estate: Roselle Illinois Homes - Northern DuPage County Market Summary - 02/23/09 02:32 PM
Northern DuPage County Market Summary I have been following along with interest over the last few months the Chicago Tribune and the ‘Price Pulse’ real estate sales snapshot.  This article in particular is for comparisons of August thru October 2008 and August thru October 2007.   This is for my areas and communities that I cover in DuPage County only.
It mentions changes in median housing prices either an increase, no change (or no sales), or a decrease.  Now let’s go over what a median house price is – ½ the homes sold for more and ½ the homes sold for less.

roselle il real estate: Roselle Homes - Local Market Update - Lyn Sims (847)230-7324 - Roselle Real Estate Agent - 11/01/08 02:41 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)

roselle il real estate: Always Hire a Home Inspector - Lyn Sims (847)230-7324 RE/MAX Suburban - 06/02/08 01:26 PM

"Upon Further Inspection"
One of the most important steps in the home buying and selling process is often overlooked: the home inspection. While many buyers and sellers alike are wary of inspections (for fear of finding the dreaded "deal-breaker"), in reality thorough and timely inspections help smooth the process and prevent headaches during or after closing.

The Difference between Appraisal and Inspection
Many consumers are unclear regarding the difference between a home appraiser and a licensed home inspector.  A house appraisal is an independent evaluation of the current market value of the home from your lenders/bank perspective.  Generally speaking, … (0 comments)
