kankakee: The reign is over ...........time to get my business moving!!!

The pictures below are in the Historic Riverview Area of Kankakee County. Hundred year old trees were picked up and dropped like they were matchsticks.

Real Estate continues to be a great investment. If you rely on national news stories to decide whether or not it is a good time to buy or sell, you might be missing a good investment opportunity. While average sale prices help us to determine a national trend, real estate is and continues to be local. Home prices in the Kankakee-Bradley metro region have not experienced the boom of other parts of the country. Median home prices have increased from $112,000.00 in 2003 to $148,586.00 in 2007.
