There's been much talk (chatter by the national talking heads) in the media about our Northwest Suburban and Streamwood home values returning to a previous level. I read these reports constantly, day in and day out and wonder to myself 'How do they know this stuff when I don't even know it!'Real estate is unique in that it is very local in nature. In fact, real estate is so unique it can even be broken down further to say that neighborhoods even in the same town will been effected differently. What happens in one subdivision doesn't necessary happen in another. What effects one subdivisions appeal doesn't effect another that's even similar. So 'painting with a broad brush' is not possible in our Streamwood neighborhoods.Any Streamwood real estate professional I will challenge because th...

Streamwood IL Homes - Streamwood IL Real Estate - Housing Market for January 2012 How to describe this market for Streamwood IL Homes?   We have actually been seeing an improvement for the last 10 months and are now equal to or above the total sales for 2011. It still feels sluggish, erratic, and unpredictable both for buyers and sellers.  Interest rates have never been lower with affordability being the best it's ever been.  But buyers are still pensive and definitely not pulling the trigger very fast which then frustrates sellers!The months supply of inventory for Streamwood IL Homes has been very steady and has kept our recovery on an even keel. We have 27% less inventory now than 12 months ago.  Too many homes on the market makes it more competitive and prices are forced downward.  ...

Signs of life in our Streamwood IL Real Estate Market recently.  We are moving ahead and sales have finally reached above the 2010 level of closings.  For the 3rd Quarter of 2011 Streamwood Single Family Homes are 13% above 2010 closings and Streamwood Multi-Family are 14% over 2010.As of yet there are still no price gains that I can see with the foreclosures still leading the way in current sales. If all goes well, the next trend will be for prices to finally level off and slight increases to begin.  This also would depend on how much inventory we have going into the winter months ahead.  Currently the number of properties for sale is also down from the 2010 levels.Looking for an agent that knows this fluctuating market?  Give me a call to discuss your housing situation and needs.Searc...

Pricing your home to sell - how shall we arrive at a good price?   Well there’s actually three things that are enmeshed together:  they are Price, Condition, Location.  All three actually make your Streamwood IL home either sell or be rejected by prospective buyers. Obviously in this market with the elevated inventory you have to be ‘spot on’ with your homes price.  Too high and no one will take your home seriously and it will be passed over.  A fair price – what a seller is willing to accept and a buyer is willing to pay.  That’s what we normally strive for. For Streamwood IL homes here are some enlightening statistics that I've found.  Price your house right in the beginning and you'll make more money!  It's true and here's what I've found from current sold sales.

Welcome to the roller coaster ride for Streamwood Homes!  In this gyrating edition of June's market update I'm going to decipher for you the current market trends (cause that's what I do) and tell you about time on market.  A more complex word that some use might be 'absorption rate'.  So how long will it take your Streamwood home to sell?Let's begin with the use of the economic basic of supply and demand. Obviously in this market we have too much supply. When that happens the time it takes to sell your Streamwood home also goes up. Buyers have a tremendous amount to choose from on the market but don't be fooled they are 'ready to pull the trigger' if they see something they want!Pricing your home correctly in the beginning has many advantages as these graphs will illustrate to you.

Streamwood townhome foreclosures and 'better priced values' are being scooped up the fastest.  Short sales?  Well, they fell terribly 'short' for our area.  From working with my own buyers, short sales offer too many hassles and not enough price rewards for dealing with the banks as a seller.  Dealing with a bank = headaches and massive quantities of Tylenol.There are many great values to be had on the market right now.  The average list price in Streamwood is $146,742 and there are many homes available in the most popular price range of $150,000 to $200,000.  The lowest price for sale right now is $36,900 and the highest is $283,990. Variety, styles and selections in each price range. Looking to buy a Streamwood Townhome and want to work with a buyers agent that's familiar with the are...

Streamwood IL Homes - What types of financing was used? While the Blog Dog and I were investigating the total sales for each property type on Streamwood IL Homes we noticed a few striking differences between Streamwood single family homes and multi-family home sales. Depending on what type of property you have will figure into your buying or selling strategy.  Types of financing that buyers use have different criteria and variables that sellers must pay attention too.  On FHA purchases the home must have minimum standards to protect the buyer from unknown future mechanical breakdowns.  When the appraisal is done on these properties the appraisers check the attic spaces, crawl spaces and any basement areas not readily available.  This has never been done before but it's been the trend fo...
