Sunday evening, folks, here in Chicago! A warm night - warmest it seems we have had in months! Nearly 70 degrees!
And a hot weekend for showings on our Team's listings!
Nearly a dozen showings, several on those that haven't been shown with such intensity in weeks. One offer coming in. Another in negotiation.
A short sale deal left for dead - back to life!
Three qualified buyer interviews - three Exclusive Buyer Relationships formed!
Is something happening, folks, here in Chicago, and perhaps where you live? New life in the market? More showings? More interest? New offers?
According to Reporter Mary Ellen Podmolik in today's Chicago Tribune, March, resales of IL single-family homes and condominiums posted monthly-gains for the second consecutive time. For the first time since last June, the Median Home Price across IL actually rose last month.
In Cook County, the County that includes the City of Chicago, home resales jumped 38% versus February, to 2,409 homes sold county-wide. This is a far cry from one year ago, however, when 3,432 homes sold in March, 2008 across Cook County.
Suburban Chicago Counties showing the biggest month-over-month sales jumps were Lake County, north of Chicago - sales there jumped 65% in March, and Kendall County, far west of Chicago, where sales climbed 51% in March versus February.
So, I gotta know if it's just me - if I am just imagining this thing!
This spurt of interest in Real Estate - is it real? Is it lasting? Is it happening all over?
Please share!
