Well lately
we’ve heard some media buzz that improvement is happening in
the Hoffman Estates Illinois
Real Estate Market and I just wanted to let
you know that YES –
it’s true!
So for the month of March 2009 .............. we’ve had 16 properties close – YIPPEE.
All the closings were below the $398,000 price and only 3 were actually above $300,000. This is basically showing us that obviously the first time buyers are spurring along the market. Also for those wondering, only 5 were marked foreclosures and 3 were marked short sales. Our MLS allows us to differentiate these from regular closings. The lowest sales price was $101,000 which is a great deal for a 3BR home on a larger lot in Hoffman Estates!
Now with the pending sales during March 2009 – 32 homes went under contract and 22 are below the $400,000 list price. So again we see that nothing is really happening yet in the upper price brackets for March.
There are currently 94 homes for sale below $300,000 available in Hoffman Estates.

Thanks Sheldon for stopping by, sell those first time home buyers!
Lynn it is great to hear that your market is improving. I hope it continues...we are seeing the same thing here in Mass.
Thanks for stopping by Bill - shouldn't you be working on a great graph of your area showing improvements too? Glad things are on the upswing for your area as well.
Good job on the graphics from your MLS. I've got to learn how to insert them into my blog!
Pat,
It is from the program SnagIt which you can try out for a trial period to see if you like it. There is another one that I am starting to use which is Create a Graph. It's for kids and I got it up and going in no time! I wish I could remember who to give credit to on AR. Good luck using them in your area and let me know if you need any help.
