As a Buffalo Grove realtor, the number one question that I am always asked is..... "How is the Buffalo Grove Real Estate Market Doing?" Obviously, my clients ask me this question but I am also asked this question by friends, family and/or acquaintances. I am asked this question at the grocery store, while I am walking my dog, at school functions, as a spectator at my son's volleyball game , parties, anywhere and everywhere.
So to answer the 64 Dollar question, How is the Buffalo Grove Real Estate Market " I have summarized the following information for my readers.
1. Unfortunately for Buffalo Grove sellersand fortunate for Buffalo Grove buyers- home prices in Buffalo Grove are currently similar to what the prices were in 2002/2003.
2.There were 12 closed detached sales in Buffalo Grove Il in December 2009. If you would like to know what a particular Buffalo Grove sold for, just email me and I will be happy to send you the sales price.
3. The highest selling price for a single family home in Buffalo Grove in December 2009 was $652,000 while the lowest sales price in Buffalo Grove in December 2009 was $230,000.

I think that it is a wonderful time to sell if you are looking for a great opportunity to buy - I have had two clients who recently sold their homes for less than they had paid for them in 2003 but made up the difference and more when they purchased their next home. .
If you do not own anything it's a wonderful time to buy too. With the extended tax credits in place and interest rates under 5% for a conventional loan - there are some amazing opportunities in Buffalo Grove, Illinois.
