Palos Park Homes Currently Available
Posted by: | CommentsPrices for Palos Park homes are dropping and you might be able to afford this popular village more today than ever before. I think some buyers avoid Palos Park because they feel the prices are so high, but for the 1st 6 months of 2011 they were #3 on the list of average sale prices for the southwest suburbs I work in – you can see the chart on my Southwest Chicago Suburbs Real Estate blog. It doesn’t cover all of the suburbs I work in but encompasses a small, somewhat interconnected area of villages.
As of today’s date, there are 82 Palos Park homes currently on the market. Prices might still sound a little high to some of you when you hear that the lowest priced home is $234,000 and only offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bath and needs updating. On the high end, there are currently 6 homes priced over $2,000,000 in the village. The most recent highest priced sold and closed Palos Park home was sold at $2,740,000 and was new construction in the Shadow Ridge Estates subdivision. It closed in 2008. The most recent high priced sale this year was a foreclosure in the same subdivision that closed in June, 2011, for $1,600,000. Foreclosures occur in all price ranges.
If you love Palos Park and would like to view homes there give your Palos Park REALTOR, Judy Orr, a call at 708-536-8200.
Beautiful Fall Day Perfect to Show Homer Glen Homes
Posted by: | Comments
I’m glad I had to show some Homer Glen homes today as I might have otherwise stayed in the house on this beautiful fall day in the southwest Chicago suburbs. That would have been a shame as I would have missed the sunny blue sky. There were some Sunday drivers on the 2-way streets today, but it was a day to take in the outdoors, to view the lovely foliage, to see the shimmering lakes and ponds and to see the people fishing.
There were geese gathering at some of the lakes and there was a low flying hawk. I’m assuming it was focusing on its lunch as it dove downwards into one of the forest preserves. The other day I was out driving I saw a hawk flying down towards the side of the road but I was driving and couldn’t see what it was aiming for, maybe roadkill.
I am a warm weather lover but I do enjoy a crisp Fall day. Unfortunately, it also is a precursor to our freezing winters with snow and slush, and I sometimes get a little blue thinking about that. But for now I’m going to savor the autumn weather and not think too much about winter. We will be visiting our Scottsdale AZ townhome in November, but when I need to go there is in February, March or April, as our Novembers haven’t been too bad.
