Possible record year for Logan Square house sales (median price $875,000)

 

Waiting in line early this month to view a Logan Square open house (all photos Eric Rojas, Broker, Kale Realty).

Our clients recently secured a single family home purchase is Logan Square. They previously lost three competitive bids to buy a house.  The last Logan Square house they bid on had 15 offers over the weekend!  This is a familiar story this season. We stuck with it and worked hard every day! Our clients are closing on a house just steps from popular Logan Square restaurants, shops, bars and the CTA Blue Line.

Let's take a look at Logan Square single family home sales this year and compare that to the last few years.

The Logan Square Community Area is diverse in neighborhoods and housing options. The area includes the historic boulevard , parts of tony Bucktown and the Palmer Square neighborhood. Home values can vary throughout community area but the whole of Logan Square has been hot! Unit sales and median price may be all time highs.

The year to year median price of a closed single family house from January 1st to may 28th is the highest in Logan Square's history ($875,000) that I can tell. The median price over the same period in the last "peak market" of 2007/2008 was $680,000.
