CHICAGO METROPOLITAN NEIGHBORHOODS


The best way to buy and sell in Chicagoland

Michael Clendenning of RE/MAX 10

The Chicago Metropolitan Area real estate market (commonly known as “Chicagoland”) offers a broad selection of properties including a large number of single-family homes, condo units (closer to Downtown Chicago), as well as townhouses. Properties closer to Downtown Chicago tend to be taller and set on smaller lots. As you get further from the downtown area, you’ll notice the houses become more sprawling as do the lots they are situated on. Frankfort and Orland Park also offer condos, duplexes, and townhouses.

Home Selling Tactics

Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast.
