Can I Find Evanston Single Family Homes for Under $500,000?

Yesterday I showed homes across the border in Evanston. I'm working with a great couple selling their condo to move up into their dream home. And, at a budget up to $500,000, the search is exciting. It's a tough price-point to get a very solid three bedroom or more home with a yard and usable basement in a top tier neighborhood. But that's what makes this career fun.

Here's a little classic brick and frame three bedroom charmer for $489,900 located in a leafy hamlet of homes across from Peter N Jans Community Golf Course in south Evanston. From the photos online, this looked like a contender. However, it was a little too worn out for my clients to take it on as a fixer. It was disappointing... because what a great location!
