We have seen an increase in activity in the Carol Stream real estate market over the last month. December definately was not a "slow" month for Carol Stream homes for sale. We should see a result in that activity in the next 30 to 45 days when all those homes start closing.

This week numbers are not as impressive as the last few weeks, but it is not at a stand still either. Any activity is good activity at this time of the year. The holidays certainly have not stopped people in the Carol Stream real estate market from purchasing homes.

The trees are starting to change to those bright and vibrant colors. The nice cool "sweat shirt" weather is here. It is truly one of the most beautiful times of the year.
The Carol Stream real estate market is still slowly moving along. Homes are still selling which is a good sign! Showings will definately be slow but our experience has been that you have more serious buyers instead of the "let's see what's out there" or the "professional looks" as we like to call them in the real estate industry.
We recently showed some homes and one thing that really stuck out was … (0 comments)

market report: Cook County, Illinois Real Estate Market Report | September 2007 - 10/03/07 02:30 PM

The real estate market continues to be at the center of conversations. People ask..."With higher inventories, what are buyers looking for in a home?" Most buyers are looking for a home with little or no projects to be done. Our experience has been that buyers are willing to pay a little more for a home that needs no updating or replacing of any items over a home that may need paint, carpet, roof, remodeling, etc.
