Gold Coast
Housing Type: Condo
The Gold Coast condo market is continuing to show a rather balanced market. Most of Chicago is in a sellers market and, technically, some of these homes are too. However, a balanced market means there is 6-7 months of inventory and all of these condos have more than 5 months of inventory. The higher price ranges even have as much as 10, meaning they are in a buyer's market. It is very important for sellers to understand how many similar homes are available so they can decide how fair or aggressive to price their … (2 comments)

Streeterville
Housing Type: Condo
Last month we warned that if there is a surge in new listings we may see a balanced market among the Streeterville condos. We haven't seen a surge this month. Most price ranges are flowing smoothly with about as many homes going under contract and selling as coming new to the market. It looks like there is extra inventory in the $2m+ range, but nearly half of those homes are in the new construction building, One Bennett Park, scheduled for delivery in 2019. The median sales price for condos in Streeterville over the past month was … (0 comments)

River West/Fulton River District
Housing Type: Condo
Last month we mentioned that 9 out of the 11 homes that were listed in the course of that month went under contract. This month there were 13 new listings, 5 of which have already gone under contract. That is still nearly 40% of the homes that were listed. Even if one month may be a touch slower than the last we are still deep in a seller's market. In fact, most of the actively listed homes have been on the market for less than 2 months. River West condos are … (0 comments)

River North
Housing Type: Condo
Much of the market is moving at such a smooth pace that even though homes are being listed they have been going under contract at the same rate over the past month. This is keeping the months supply of inventory down among most of the condos. There is a lot more inventory in the $1m+ ranges, but over half of listings are in new construction buildings. The new construction has been needed, but even among those properties it is still a seller's market. The median sales price of River North condos was $425,000.

South Loop
Housing Type: Condo
Just a few more homes came to the market than went under contract and sold since last month. It's hardly been enough to push inventory levels up, but homes are taking a few months to sell, so as we move into the spring market we may see it start to balance out. If you want to sell quickly now is the time to do it. List your home before the spring market hits and make sure it is decluttered, marketed well, and priced fairly. You will have a better chance at selling while … (3 comments)

Loop
Housing Type: Condo
We've seen a welcome spike in listings since last month, pushing most of the neighborhood towards a balanced market. In many neighborhoods around the city we are seeing this mostly through new construction, but only 39 of the condos for sale are in Vista tower, the newest condo skyscraper to break ground downtown. There are 28 condos for sale in Legacy, but this newer building is at closeout prices and 97% of it has sold. As a result, some of the homes for sale in that building are already resale. Buyers in the Loop will … (0 comments)

No homes have sold in Dearborn Park over the past month. In fact, only one condo has come to the market in these price ranges. It is a 2b/2ba penthouse that has been on the market for 22 days. With floor to ceiling windows, two terraces, and skyline views, this one may not last long.

Prairie District
Housing Type: Condo
Condos in the Prairie District are still moving at a pretty steady pace, as we discussed last month. In the $400-500k range, where there were multiple closings, we can see it still took an average of 4 months for the homes to sell. As we predicted this pace is slowly pushing up the month's supply of inventory. In the spring months we usually see an increase in sellers. If that happens this year this market will stay on track towards balancing out. The median sales price for Prairie District condos was $378,500.

Condos in the Wrightwood Sheffield neighborhood are holding steady since last month. Nearly the same number of homes came to the market as went under contract keeping the inventory levels as is. The seller's market continues, but spring is not here yet. We could see parts of this market balance out if some more homeowners decide to sell. The median sales price for condos was $549,000.

A slight increase in inventory over the past month is a welcome sight in this neighborhood. There continues to be a lot of demand for homes in the South Loop and Museum Park has some of the most sought after real estate. The price range with the greatest increase in inventory is the $1-2m range and most of these homes are in One Museum Park East, a stunning glass tower that overlooks the Lake, Grant Park, and the skyline.

Roscoe Village
Housing Type: Condo
As we noted last month, this market is still moving fast. Condos are going under contract at a similar rate as they are coming to the market. The average market time of the two homes that sold in the $400-500k range is pretty high, but one of them took 347 days, which is a long sales time in any market. A better indicator of how quickly homes are selling in this price range might be the average market time of homes that are under contract. It is currently 73 days and that is among 5 … (0 comments)

Lakeview East

In the lower price ranges we are seeing a few more homes come to the market than go under contract, but it's not a huge difference. The biggest change since last month was the $400-500k range where 18 homes went under contract and 21 homes came to the market. It's almost like there was a complete turn over of listings. The average market time for the ones that are under contract is only 38 days. While the average market time for those that sold is 72 days. Sellers can still sell quickly if they … (0 comments)

Lincoln Park
Housing Type: Condo
Over the past month in nearly every price range either the same amount or more condos came to the market than went under contract. These homes have been selling very fast, in 3 months or less for most of them. They are still in a buyers market, so a little added inventory is quite welcome. The largest increase in inventory is in the $400-500 range where 18 listings became active. Even at that the months supply is still low at 2 months. The median sales price for condos in Lincoln Park was $499,950.

Condos continue to sell quickly, as we saw last month. With market times and month's supply of inventory at around or less than a month the seller's market is looking like it will continue for quite some time in this neighborhood. The exception is in the $1m+ range. The 2 homes with the longest list time are new construction. One of the resale homes went under contract after only 43 days. Nothing else in resale has gone under contract or closed in the past 6 months, which makes the months supply of inventory harder to gauge. … (3 comments)

Even in the new year this market is not slowing down. Most of the condos that are under contract in the $400-500k range were not on the market last month. The same is true for condos priced over $800k. Overall market times are still under two months. Sellers don't need to wait to spring fo the buyers to come out, they are ready and searching!

There has been a notable increase in listings and condos going under contract over the past month. A few of them are in a new development at 1317 N Larabee, but that complex only has 14 condos. Currently, among the condos listed for $400k+ the average market time is only 68 days and the market time for those that are under contract is 74 days. This number might even decrease as these homes close. Of the 23 that are under contract nearly half have a listing time of under … (0 comments)

Only a few condos have come to the market since last month. Market times are still pretty low with an overall market time of 118 days for closed condos and 88 days for those under contract.

There are 20 homes that have gone under contract or sold in less than 30 days, in the $400-500k price range. Last month it may have seemed like having 16 homes available in that range was a lot, but as we can see buyers are snatching up condos in the West Loop just as soon as they are listed. Pricing for the market is the most important step a seller can take for a quick sale. In fact it has a great impact on how many buyers will see the listing. Check out … (0 comments)

The Gold Coast condo market is remaining close to balanced. In most price ranges just about the same amount of homes came to the market as went under contract and sold in the last month. The notable exception is in the $1-2m range where more came to the market, pushing its inventory level towards a buyer's market. Sellers in the Gold Coast should be prepared for a listing time of a few months. They have more competition than in other neighborhoods, but there are also plenty of buyers looking for these homes.
