Selling Your Round Lake Home? Helpful Hints if Your Appraisal is Too Low! Many potential home buyers in Round Lake are not qualifying for a loan due to the fact that the home value is not there.

If the appraisal is too low, the buyers may not be able to borrow enough money to close on their Round Lake Home purchase.

Foreclosed and Short Sale Homes in the Northwest Suburbs of Illinois. The Foreclosure Market in the Round Lake area is about to become more active in the coming months and the opportunity is going to be available for savvy buyers. I know many people that are actively working with the lending institutions and have information prior to these Round Lake Homes coming on the market. The first thing you want to know is how to understand the Foreclosure Market which is different than the Short Sale Market. Foreclosures Verses Short Sales A Foreclosure is the legal process by which an owner's right to a property is terminated, usually due to default. Typically it involves a forced sale of the property at public auction or the bank will list with an agent in what we know as a bank sale with the ...

Round Lake market stats aren't looking good for the sellers of the Prairie Pointe and Valley Lakes subdivisions.   There are currently 42 properties for sale, an additional 19 that are under contract.  Most of the homes currently pending sale are short sales or foreclosures.  The last month 3 homes sold.  Of these homes that sold 2 were foreclosures and 1 was a short sale.  I live in this area and am very familar with the prices.  It appears that houses are selling close to the prices from 2002.  For all of Round Lake there are 359 home currently for sale averaging 209 days on the market.  The current inventory represents a 6.47 months supply of homes. The average sold price was $172,500.

Statistics here relate only to the Village of Round Lake. Other Round Lake villages will be reported separately. Round Lake Beach is still the largest of the 4 Round Lake villages but Round Lake itself has undergone some fast development in the last few years with many new developments reaching as far south as Route 60 and very close now to the new developments in Wauconda, especially Liberty Lakes, Wauconda off Gilmer Road. The Round Lake area is one of my secondary markets. When real estate was active I nearly opened an office in Round Lake but plans were put on hold during the slower real estate market .I have sold numerous homes in the area to first time home buyers and the choice today is huge. Prices are low, a great way to get onto the property ownership ladder. This chart shows ...
