roscoe village condo open today 11-1

30 minutes. That's when I head to the garage to make my way to open house #1. 2801 N Oakley in the Rivers Edge complex in Roscoe Village.

And while it may be a bit cooler than I prefer outside, for the moment the blue sky is speckled with wispy clouds that portend, I hope, a dry day to meet and greet Chicago consumers intent on finding a new place to call home.

Home. They say it is where the heart is. At least for the moment it is where I will be. For two hours. Today. Donning a sharp linen suit as a means of inspiring the climate to percolate in the direction of summer and its warm breezes.

For two hours, answering the phone and pressing 6 to activate the buzzer and telling people to press "3" on the elevator to make their way up to the nearly 1600 square foot upgraded home with two beds and likewise baths on an oversized template with south-facing skyline views from the huge private balcony.

For two hours telling people that the $325,000 price is correct and the the monthly assessments of $280 include basic cable and internet through the building's dedicated T-1 line. Punctuating that the nearby River Walk is a pleasant respite, looking upon the peaceful flowing river and beyond toward downtown. And within the briefest of walks to an array of things, new things, like the x-sport fitness, panera, potbelly's and chipotle on Elston. As well as the nearby target and similarly distanced costco.

All for the super low price of $325k. Donning your x-ray specs you may look toward the recent past and see that my clients originally paid $400,500 for this self-same unit. And that this unit prices a good and solid $25k less than similar units now on the market.

And so now is the time, as the clock dissipates from the 30 minutes I identified when first this passage commenced, to make my way toward the garage and then to the condo to host this open house while ensconced in a linen suit and rife with info and answers for the person looking for just this commodity.

And then all will be good. As the new person arrives to say that this is his home and my clients do the same with the home that next will be theirs.

From 11-1. You know where to find me. And calling is as easy as 773.848.9241.
