Driving home from a listing appointment the other day in Lemont’s Ruffled Feathers subdivision I got to thinking about how Real Estate is much like a game of golf . The professionals hone their craft every day whether it’s a golfer getting up early to hit buckets of balls or a Realtor being in the office early and learning what the Real Estate Market looks like that day because the markets are always moving.A pro golfer has to know how to play in all types of different climates, hot, rainy, windy and sometimes very cold conditions.  A Realtor has to know how to sell in different markets whether it be the fast moving markets we experienced in 2003 for the distressed markets in 2009.What golf club a pro chooses for an approach shot today may be different than what he chooses for the same... 05/12/2012

The table below shows market trends for single family Lemont homes from February 2011 through February 2012. The chart below shows the number of Lemont real estate listings in each month over the past year.  This shows that the amount of listings has gone down from the high of last March and April.  Amount of inventory really dropped last December but is increasing as the new year begins and we head towards the spring and summer selling seasons.   Not all of the listings above have or will sell.  Many sellers cannot get what they want or need in price and will either continue trying to find a buyer or will eventually remove their listing until things get better.  Below is a chart showing those Lemont homes that actually sold over the last 12 months.  You can see home closings spiked in ... 03/17/2012

The following chart shows the market report of suppy and demand for all of 2011 for single family Lemont homes.   As you can easily see, like most southwest Chicago suburbs, there is a big discrepancy between the amount of homes available for sale in Lemont vs. those that went under contract or sold and closed.  The month with the highest amount of active listings (the red line) was April and the lowest amount of inventory was in December. The lowest months that homes went under contract were September, December and January.  February had the least amount of homes that sold and closed.  More Lemont homes went under contract in July and the highest amount of closings occurred in August. The bottom line is, if you're a seller and your Lemont home has been sitting on the market waiting to ... 01/23/2012

Lemont IL Market Activity for the month of December 2011 In 2010 there were 114 single family Lemont homes for sale.  I won't get the 2011 stats until next month, but this is a baseline when comparing one month to an entire year for this popular southwest Chicago suburb. Let's break it down: There were 10 new listings, but read the next line for what that most likely means... There were 10 expried listings.  Most, if not all of these are the 10 "New" listings that went back on the market.  In many cases, when a listing expires it is relisted either by the original agent or with a new brokerage. Four sellers decided to make price changes, and these are normally reductions. There were 9 closed homes, so homes are selling and making it to the closing table. There were also 9 homes that wen... 12/31/2011

Lemont Homes Supply & Demand for the 6 Month Period of January-June 2011 I expected to see more accepted contracts and more closings than what is shown since Lemont is one of the only southwest suburbs that hasn't gone down in price recently.  In fact, for the 1st half of 2011 the average price of single family Lemont homes appreciated by 4.2% although number of sales went down 5.2%.  Lemont is the only village I actively work in, besides Frankfort, that showed price appreciation this year.  Many southwest suburban real estate showed double digit price depreciation. The good news is that prices are appreciating even though there is a decrease in sales.  But those numbers don't show how many homes are for sale in any given time in Lemont vs. those that did receive an offer and those that... 10/13/2011

Lemont Real Estate Takes the Lead For years I've been touting Palos Park real estate as the highest priced area of the southwest suburbs of Chicago.  As I was writing a post about Palos Park, I happened to double check our most recent 2010 real estate sales statistics and to my surprise Palos Park was not the most expensive village in the sw 'burbs in 2010! To make sure I hadn't made the wrong statements in years prior, I went back to 2005 to view the stats.  The chart below tells the story of Lemont homes vs. Palos Park homes since 2005: Year Lemont Palos Park 2010 $394,873 $380,888 2009 $379,868 $481,283 2008 $423,124 $543,485 2007 $453,909 $642,041 2006 $521,376 $603,015 2005 $445,175 $550,331 I find these price changes over the years quite interesting.
