North Center new construction home activity

Real Estate writer Dennis Rodkin of Crain's had a nice story  a couple weeks back about fervent demand for new construction houses in Chicago Several of our clients seek new homes in North Center up to $1.5 million and they can concur with the story. New construction activity seems endless, yet competitive, in North Center while prices easily exceed the $1.5 million dollar mark.
