Real estate by bike

The bike lane on West Berteau cutting through northern portion of Lakeview and through North Center.  I rode from Lincoln Square to Lincoln Park to meet contractors at a property last week.

From time to time I like to remind clients (and other brokers) that I ride my bike as often as possible for showings, inspections, contractor visits and various trips related to our transactions. I'm a little surprised we don't see more brokers pedaling up to appointments.

Fall season is my favorite time to ride.  I get to stop easily and often to check out developments, new retail construction, parks and new listings. Clients often ride to appointments after I mention that I will be taking my bike.  They sometimes forget that's the better mode of transportation to get around nearby neighborhoods!
