Chicago's high-value market runs along the lake through the Gold Coast and Lincoln Park, out to the North Shore suburbs of Winnetka, Lake Forest and Kenilworth.
Lake frontage and view, floor level and outlook in the towers, and in the suburbs, lot size and proximity to the lake and the train. Established architecture carries genuine weight on the North Shore.
The city and the North Shore attract different buyers and respond to different marketing. Knowing which pool a property suits shapes the approach from the outset.
In the towers, establish the building's finances, reserve position and assessment history. In the older suburbs, systems and structure on century-old houses deserve specialist inspection.
