The Chicagoland North Suburban Market is Perking Up

By
Real Estate Agent with Baird & Warner

According to the local real estate board for the suburban communities that lie due north of Chicago, the statistics for the first quarter of the year are definitely encouraging.

Single family home sales are up some 59% over the same period of time in 2009.

Homes under contract are up 60% for the entire Chicagoland region.

When I check the daily "hot sheet" for several of the communities that I cover, there are new contracts pending every day.  And the price spread is large, from the modest condo unit to the multi-million dollar homes. 

Here's hoping that the energy continues past the April 30 deadline for the income tax credit!
