Lincoln Square house median price over one million dollars (Chicago)

The median price of a single family home in Lincoln Square Community Area is about $1,050,000 this year. When we moved to Lincoln Square permanently in 2007 the median price of a sold home was $615,000.  I've watched many changes in Lincoln Square to the streets, business, schools, politics... and the real estate!

Lincoln Square area map via Chicago Cityscape The area sprawls West Montrose to West Peterson and North Ravenswood all the way west to the North Branch Chicago River. 

95 single family homes  have sold from January 1st to November 15th, 2024. The median price is about $1,050,000.  Seven single family homes have closed over $2M and one house closed for $3.8M.

Over the same period last year (2023) only 75 homes closed with a median price of about $1,020,000.  

Homes in the furthest northwest portion of Lincoln Square sell for considerably less than those in the southeast portion. Proximity to the CTA Brown Line, Metra and retail/ shopping has much to do with the value discrepancy. For instance, homes NORTH of West Foster Avenue and WEST of North Western Avenue have a median closed price of about $561,000. While homes SOUTH of West Foster Avenue and EAST of North Western Avenue have a median sales price of $1.2M.

Recent Albany Park single family home sales

This strip of Kedzie has slowly churned out retail and residential developments despite it's fantastic proximity to transportation. Homes just east of North Kedzie have higher value than homes west of Kedzie in the Greater Albany Park Community Area. All photos Eric Rojas, Broker, Kale Realty

A client will need to sell her parents long time single family home in Albany Park Community Area. We looked at the immediate comparable sales for the house based on location, condition, current market trends and client goals. I also checked out recent sales in greater Albany Park.

Albany Park single family homes sales January 1st to October 31st.

Brick bungalows in the eastern portion of Albany Park

95 single family homes have sold in Albany Park from January 1st to October 31st, 2024.  The median price this year is $520,000. Over the same period of 2023, 96 single family homes sold with a median price of $518K. Two year sales are as even as you can get in any Chicago community area.

In 2022, 115 single family homes sold with a median price of $550,000. The high amount of closings and high median price are a reflection of the low mortgage interest rates of 2021 and 2022. The low rates were a supercharger especially for relatively affordable neighborhoods further out from the Chicago lakefront.

In 2021, 133 homes sold with a median price of $495,000

Values can swing from eastern Albany Park's Ravenswood Manor neighborhood along the river to the western edge near North Pulaski Road

Over the past twelve months 18 homes sold in the smaller area of Albany Park east of Kedzie. The median price of a closed house is $800,000.  90 single family homes closed west of Kedzie with a median price of $465,000.

We advised on needed updates and repairs to receive top monthly rent and arranged contractors to do the work. We found a perfect fit for the property owner through local advertising on our social media channels and our tenant application process.

The median price of a one bedroom rental in North Center is about $1,700 per month. A unique 1,800 sq/ft loft with garage parking rented for as high as $3,600 / month.

- 41 co-op apartments sold in Evanston over the last 12 months.
- The median price of a sold co-op is about $165,000.
- Over the same period 397 condos sold with a median price of $300,000.

We recently sold three Evanston Co-Op apartments... ask me about Co-Ops!

 

The kitchen at 1585 Ridge Avenue, Unit 310, Evanston, IL 60201 pictured above. The two beds, one bath Unit 310 sold for our list price of $149,900. We worked with three separate Co-Op apartment sellers in the same building earlier this year. All photos Eric Rojas, Broker, Kale Realty or VHT.com


We recently sold three Evanston co-op apartments. Apartment cooperative (co-op) ownership is different than condo ownership. We help you understand the difference so you don't make a Co-OOOPS!

"You’re buying shares in the nonprofit corporation that owns the building. You’ll receive stock instead of a title as you would with a traditional home purchase" as described by Rocket Mortgage. The nonprofit corporation has much more control and "leeway" concerning the apartment building rules, regulations and final decision in approving a sale of those company shares.

The living room at 1585 Ridge Avenue, Unit 411, Evanston, IL 60201 pictured above. We sold the large one bed, one bath unit to a well qualified buyer for $130,000 prior to the unit hitting the MLS.

Some "Pros" to buying a co-op in Evanston or Chicago can be the price and stability. Due to often stricter rules and stricter conditions buying into a co-op the purchase price can be lower than market rate condos. Those stricter rules can also be a PLUS for a shareholder who wants a stable building with no renters (or no pets for example) and less owner turn-over. 

The main difference in purchasing and selling a co-op apartment is the current shareholders can accept or deny a purchaser based on their finances and their intended use of the unit.  For instance the managing shareholders may require a full cash purchase or 20%- 50% cash down for a purchase (much stricter than a mortgage lender for example) for a purchase or a certain level of current income. Additionally they may only allow shareholders to live in the unit (and not a roommate without shareholder status). The nonprofit conducts an interview with prospective shareholders and can deny their purchase if the whole package does not meet shareholder qualifications.

The kitchen at 1585 Ridge Avenue, Unit 302, Evanston IL 60201. We sold this two beds, one bathroom co-op apartment sold for $170,000 including a garage parking space.

There is no interview process in a condo building. Generally if you can buy a condo with cash or you qualify for the mortgage... you CAN buy it.  Current owners cannot deny you based on finances or require more money down. A condo purchaser/ owner is subject to the home owners association by-laws and rules and regulations but the purchase and sale are less restrictive processes.

Ask us about buying and selling co-op apartments!  We have experience in helping buyers and sellers understand the ins and outs of making a transaction happen! Eric Rojas, Broker, Kale Realty erojas@kalerealty.com

North Center small multi-unit sales down in 2024, prices up slightly

 

A view of original two-flats and a new construction home in North Center. Several of these may be single family home conversions now. We also see a two-flat has been torn down for new construction. All photos Eric Rojas, Broker, kale Realty

41 small multi-unit buildings (two-four flats) have sold from January 1st to October 4th of this year.  The median price of these sales is about $790,000. In 2023, 57 unis sold with a median price of $775,000 over the same period. in 2022, 69 units sold with a median price about $780,000.  Unit sales are down significantly like most housing types. Low inventory has been the main culprit as owners hang on to their low mortgage interest rates from a few years ago.

The purchase of small multi-units offer flexible options for property owners.  You can live in one unit and rent out the remaining units (traditional lease or possible vacation rental business). New Additional Dwelling Unit (ADU) city ordinances may help you realize further investment opportunity by adding a basement apartment or backyard "coach house" unit depending on allowable zoning capacity. You may opt to convert the multi-unit to a single family home (popular choice with two-flat purchases in North Center). Some multi-units are completely torn down for brand new single family home construction.

While some areas in the city face stricter ordinances that slow down demolition or conversion of multi-units, the North Center community area faces less scrutiny. Despite higher than average median purchase prices and relatively higher interest rates North Center is still a popular area to convert two-flats to single family homes or tear down completely and build a new house.

Client buys Mid-Century gem in Flossmoor, median price up 15%

Earlier this year we helped our clients secure a sprawling Mid-Century ranch home at 934 Gardner Road, Flossmoor, IL 60422 for $450,000. Our buyers shed their long time East Lakeview condo for greener pastures (a big yard and garage!). However, they faced the decision of convenience vs commute.  With the influence of long-time friends they realized Flossmoor provides easy Metra access to our clients' offices in downtown Chicago. Not only that... there are some cool houses and a cute downtown!

Flossmoor features a traditional downtown with a Metra station to downtown Chicago. 

Flossmoor single family home sales

Median price of a sold home in Flossmoor is up 15% over last year. 79 single family homes sold from January 1st to October 3rd with a median price about $365,000. 77 homes sold over the same period of 2023 with a median price of about $320,000. A whopping 129 homes closed over the same period of 2022 with a median price of $325,000. In 2021, 150 single family homes sold with a median price of $290,000.

New Northwest Side "preservation ordinance" hurts small multi-unit owners

 

A Logan Square preservation ordinance along "The 606" elevated park trail on the North Side has inspired similar ordinances in adjacent areas. Photo Eric Rojas, Broker, Kale Realty 

The new "Northwest Side housing preservation ordinance" is problematic to me. This was rushed through the city council with little public debate. I don't know why Alderman continue increase taxes and regulations on small business and property owners. Do they think owning real estate and business in the city is a walk in the park? We're all greedy? My biggest issues are:

1. A tenant right to first refusal to purchase a multi-unit building when an owner wants to sell. The tenant buyers can force a contract with the owner BUT do not have to prove financial ability to purchase nor have to deposit more than 5% of the purchase price. The process can hold up sales for minimum but in effect much longer.
2. The tenant right of first refusal may be assigned to a 3rd party, further complicating sales for property owners.

Here's a summary of these issues in the ordinance:

Notice Timeframe & Right Of First Refusal Timeframe: 1-2 Units: 30 day notice required prior to sale, 15 day right of first refusal 3-4 Units: 30 day notice required prior to sale, 30 day right of first refusal 5+ units: 60 day notice required prior to sale, 90 day right of first refusal Timeframe to close if tenant ROFR is exercised: 5+ units: 120 days to exercise right of first refusal 1-4 units: 60 days to exercise right of first refusal.
"If purchaser purchases a rental property AND USES ANY PUBLIC FUNDS IN THE PURCHASE, then the rental property shall be maintained as affordable housing for no less than 30 years".
Financial assurances; deposit. The owner may not require the tenant association to prove financial ability to perform as a prerequisite to entering into a contract. The owner shall not require the tenant association or tenant(s) under Section 5-11-070060(b)(3), to pay a deposit of more than 5 percent of the contract sales price in order to make a contract. The owner must refund the deposit in the event of a good faith failure of the tenant association or tenant(s) to perform under the contract.

View the area and major points below. In my opinion there should be exemptions AT LEAST for owners with fewer than a dozen units... or some sort of compromise. These are often live-in owners or they invested and lived in a building than moved on to another home while keeping the rental building.

Median rent for a two bedrooms apartment in Lincoln Park, Chicago is $3,000/ month

Lincoln Common in Lincoln Park (shown here on Monday of this week) is a sexy rental and retail development on the former Children's Memorial site.  All photos Eric Rojas, Broker, Kale Realty

The median monthly rent for a two beds apartment in Lincoln Park over the last twelve months is $3,000. A three bedrooms apartment has a median rent of $4,200.

I was in Lincoln Park this past week looking at relatively higher-end rentals for a client moving to the city. We passed the Lincoln Common Apartments entrance at 2345 N Lincoln Avenue, Chicago IL 60614. Rents at Lincoln Common Apartments are listed from $2,600 to $12,500 a month on Apartment.com. Affordable apartments are also offered to qualified candidates based on income and other factors.

I've written about the Lincoln Common development several times in the past. It was built on the former Children's Memorial site. The old Children's Hospital and location is near and dear to our hearts... my wife has worked with Children's (and now currently named Lurie Hospital)  for over 22 years. My old office was around the corner.  We loved our time in Lincoln Park.

Will Lincoln Square's Saint Matthias rectory building finally become apartments?

 

The former Saint Matthias parish rectory building at the corner of North Oakley and West Ainslie is subject to an apartment conversion proposal. Selling the long vacant property for development has proved difficult. All  photos Eric Rojas, Broker, Kale Realty

A Lincoln Square church building at 2310 W Ainslie may become "nine market rate apartments" according to development filings.  Another attempt to re-zone and develop the shuttered Saint Matthias parish building will be heard at an October 3rd, 2024 community zoning meeting. The convent building on  North Claremont around the corner was already converted to apartments by a different developer. The rectory building has proved more difficult to sell and develop. The last legitimate proposal was shot down by the community process (mainly due to losing the open yard space on the corner).


Public notices for a community zoning meeting have been posted on surrounding properties and car windshields.   



Housing in this desirable Lincoln Square location remains in great demand. 

-Over the past 12 months the average rent for a two bedrooms apartment in a four block radius from the development is about $2,300 / month. 
-The median price of a closed single family home in a four block radius of the proposed development is about $1.2M.
-Median price of a sold condo in the same area is $417,500.

Golfing for Northeastern Illinois University scholarships!

My clients and long time business partners came out to support NEIU student scholarships once again in late July. My Kale Realty team has sponsored thousands of dollars over the years for my favorite annual event! All photos Eric Rojas, Broker, Kale Realty

I was excited to once again sponsor and serve on the planning committee for the 51st Chuck Kane Scholarship Golf Event with Northeastern Illinois University. The event was hosted at beautiful Bryn Mawr Country Club on July 29th. I had a great group of clients and business associates join me to compete for the 1st Place Golden Eagle Bobblehead (we were not close).

This was our first year at Bryn Mawr Country Club on Chicago's North Side and we could not had a better facility.  The lounge, bar, locker rooms, patio and banquet areas are fantastic.  The course is in terrific condition and the fore caddies that were super fun!

The golfers line up for the start of the 51st Annual Chuck Kane Scholarship Golf event sponsored by Northeastern Illinois University staff, alumni, professors and friends.

We heard from our newly hired university President Katrina Bell-Jordan  in her first official event with NEIU! The student scholarship recipient speakers at the dinner program were phenomenal!

Lincoln Square home sale surpasses $3 million for the first time

A single lot Lincoln Square home sale has surpassed the $3 million mark for the first time. It's possible there is a private sale out there over $3M but I have not been able to find one. $2 million sales are up as well. Houses on West Leland, Lincoln Square shown in the photo above (Eric Rojas, Broker, Kale Realty).

Lincoln Square home sale prices appear to have reached new heights this summer.  A single lot single family home built in 2020 has resold for $3,800,000 according to MREDLLC.com records (my broker multiple listing service).  4431 North Hamilton, Chicago IL 60625 closed in late June this summer smashing the $3 million mark.

It's hard to place a value on great views... unless you are at 340 on the Park in Lakeshore East

Our clients viewed a rental condo unit at 340 on the Park, 340 East Randolph Chicago IL 60601  at Lakeshore East last week... and caught the only peek of sunshine all week! The views and location are spectacular. Rents for a condo unit in the building over the last 12 months have ranged from $3,300/ month to $16,500/ month.

25th floor amenity deck views from 340 on the Park.

Amenity deck views of Millennium Park and Michigan Avenue skyline

Motivation Monday! I would even get on the elliptical for these Lake Michigan views.

Downtown condo rentals (owned by an individual in a 100% condo building that is allowed to be leased to a tenant) are often desirable to high-end renters.  They seek a more predictable condo association environment of longer term owners and less turn-over of neighbors. There are certainly well run 100% rental buildings with great amenities. However, anecdotally speaking, the building will be more transient with constant move-in and out tenants. High-end condo renters may also choose to negotiate and communicate with the condo owner/ landlord rather than a large rental office management company. 

To purchase, sell or rent condos in downtown/ Loop locations please contact us for our recommendations and resources.
