An Art World Mystery That Started in Hubbard Woods in Winnetka I live in Hubbard Woods,  the northern part of Winnetka, IL. Tony, the neighbor who lived behind me, used to walk his dog around the block and always stop at our house. We had a border collie that loved to sit in the front yard (with an electronic fence) and he would always stop to pet my dog. That's how I got to know him.One day while we were talking, he told me an intriguing story. Admittedly, I didn't totally think it could possibly be true. But here it is. He said that he had come across an incredible oil painting in an English antique store. It depicted Mary holding the infant Jesus in her lap as her cousin and John the Baptist looked on. The shopkeeper told Tony that the artwork could be from the Renaissance. I knew To... 03/01/2023

The Final Walkthrough - 5 Things Buyers Hate to Find Your closing day is almost here and the buyers have scheduled their final walkthrough. You've emptied the house, made repairs, and cleaned up. What could go wrong?As a seller, you may be unnerved by this. Buyers are allowed to visit the house before closing and make sure the house is as it's supposed to be. It's mostly a benign visit with the buyers excited to head to the close. What are the walkthrough hiccups that can occur?ITEMS THAT BOTH SIDES THOUGHT THEY HAD A RIGHT TOThe second refrigerator in the garage or basement, the stunning chandelier in the dining room - gone! It happens all the time - believe me. Unless you made sure the contract specified the second refrigerator, the seller can take it. This applies to shrubs and trees... 01/31/2023

Compelling Real Estate Facts Nationally and in the North Shore There are more than the usual number of articles about the U.S. housing market right now. After two tumultuous years of a seat-of-your-pants ride, everyone has a say on where the market has been and where it's going in 2023.I find this reading engrossing but don't accept my word, have a look:  From the Federal Housing Finance Agency, an interactive chart that shows the top 100 U.S. metro areas and how they ranked in 2022. Eight of the first 10 are in Florida which is not surprising. What is surprising is that many areas that we were told are dying on the vine made the list The National Association of Realtors (NAR) released its list of "10 Housing Markets Expected to Lead the Nation in 2023." Interestingly, Florida does not ... 01/10/2023

There's nothing like a simple chart to show off some amazing statistics. Going from right to left, it's easy to see the remarkable changes in the real estate market since 2019. The numbers on this chart encompass all the data for Winnetka, Wilmette, Glencoe, Kenilworth, and Northfield combined:The upward trajectory of North Shore home prices has been relentless for the past three years. There are changes happening now that will affect these numbers but I believe they will not be daunting. By this, I mean that home prices will remain fairly steady or drop slightly as long as inventory continues to stay low. Many pundits are suggesting a recession or housing downturn will occur in 2023. The Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell has said, "we're passing through a difficult housing correction... 01/06/2023

2022 Year-End Winnetka North Shore Luxury Home Report This year, I'm using $5,000,000 + as the market for luxury homes in the North Shore. I previously used $2,500,000+ but prices have risen too much to include so many homes!Luxury sales also benefitted from the super hot market of the past two years. In 2016, I wrote: "The average market time for these homes to sell in 2016 was 262 days." Incredibly, in 2022, the average market time was 80 days. The range of times went from 5 days to 384 days. If it weren't for the outlier of 384 days, the average days would have been just 47 days. Eight of the homes shown below sold for a discount, one sold for full price, and one home sold for slightly over the list price. Seven homes were located in Winnetka, two in Glencoe, and in Wilmette.  North ... 12/09/2022

Hubbard Woods Winnetka IL Real EstateNovember 2022There were 3 closed sales and one new listing in November. Of the 3 sold homes, one sold well below the list price, while the other 2 went over the list price. The one new went under contract very quickly. As long as inventory is this low, mortgage rates won't have too much of a damper for certain buyers. There were no new listings entered in the Private Network in November.  SOLD WINNETKA PROPERTIES IN NOVEMBER  260 WoodlawnList price: $1,100,000Sold price: $860,000Days on market: 126(This home sold previously in June 2022 for $945,000 after 7 days on the market) 1225 Pine List price: $1,795,000 Sold price: $1,800,000 Days on market: $1,800,000 110 N.

Hubbard Woods Winnetka Real Estate in October 2022Most of the data below mirrors that of exactly one year ago - October 2021. The big change in home buying is the rising mortgage interest rate which, to date, has not impacted Winnetka and Hubbard Woods sales. The trade-off is the low inventory. Rising rates vs. low inventory and while the market is slightly cooling, clearly, low inventory is keeping prices high.   New Hubbard Woods Listings in October 888 Forest Glen - $1,049,000 1139 Oakley - $1,265,000 (under contract) 1225 Pine - $1,795,000 (under contract) 110 N.

What is the Private Listing Network in Winnetka & the North Shore TWO THINGS HAPPENED IN REAL ESTATEIn 2018, our Northern Illinois Multiple Listing Service (MRED) introduced the “Private Listing Network” (PLN) to real estate agents.  Then, in November 2019, the National Association of Realtors banned the use of “pocket listings.”  The ban has been challenged but stands for now.  WHAT IS A POCKET LISTING?First, what is a pocket listing and why is it problematic? A pocket listing (sometimes called an exempt listing) is an agreement between the home seller and real estate agent (more specifically, the brokerage) that the house will not be listed on the  Multiple Listing Service (MLS,) but rather sold behind the scenes. There are multiple reasons sellers might not want their homes publicly ... 09/21/2022

What's Ahead for Winnetka & North Shore Real Estate?There are so many differing opinions about where the real estate market is headed. This is what I know and what I've gleaned from the real estate sources I follow. After having a super hot market for almost two years, change is definitely in the air. We see it locally with three markers: price reductions contracts falling apart longer days on market Inventory is still historically low but slowly, very slowly, creeping up. Conversely, mortgage rates have risen since June, and fallen again. It's a concern for some buyers who have decided to wait it out on the sidelines.This slowdown does not mean that we're in a depreciation phase - but rather a deceleration phase. Some real estate insiders think the market will pick up later this year a... 08/09/2022
