  • ๐Ÿกย Cook County Just Released a New Housing Market Data Toolโ€”Hereโ€™s Why It Matters

    Cook County Assessorโ€™s Office has launched a newย  interactive Housing Market Tracker , covering home sale prices and transaction data fromย  2020 to 2024 .(Link: cookcountyassessoril.gov/cook-county-housing-market-tracker ) This tool includes data onย  single-family homes, condos, and small multifamily buildings (6 units or fewer) , allowing residents, homeowners, journalists, and policymakers to easily seeย  how home values in their area have changed over the last four years. ๐Ÿ“Š ย Why This New Public Tool Is Important โœ”๏ธ ย 1. Data is finally simple and accessible Until now, individuals had to gather information from multiple sources or sort through complex datasets.The new tracker makes neighborhood-level housing trends easy for anyone to understand. โœ”๏ธ ย 2. Homeowners can see how much equity theyโ€™ve gained You can look up how values in your neighborhood have changed since 2020 โ€” and in many areas, home values have nearly doubled , according to the Assessorโ€™s Office. โœ”๏ธ ย 3. Buyers and sellers can make more informed decisions The tracker lets you compareย  price trends by area and by housing type , helping you evaluate timing, opportunity, and competition. ๐Ÿ™๏ธ ย What It Means for the Chicago & Suburban Market This release has major implications for Chicago and nearby suburbs: โœ”๏ธ ย Strong equity growth in many neighborhoods For example, Englewood on the South Side reportedly saw its median home priceย  almost double since mid-2020 .This illustrates how powerful long-term ownership can be. โœ”๏ธ ย Rising assessments may lead to higher property taxes Areas with fast-growing home values may also see higher assessments โ€” something homeowners should monitor closely. โœ”๏ธ ย Buyers & sellers can now track 4-year price trends and transaction activity You can directly visualize: Price appreciation by neighborhood How transaction volume has changed Whether the pace of sales is heating up or cooling down This is extremely valuable when choosing when to list or when to buy. ๐ŸŽฏ ย Strategic Guidance for Sellers & Buyers ๐Ÿ”ถ ย For Sellers If your neighborhood has seen strong appreciation over the last four years, your equity may be at a peak. Use the tracker to see how your home compares to area trends and determine the best timing to sell. Keep an eye onย  tax assessments ย โ€” rising values may increase future tax bills. Consider appraisal reviews or appeals if necessary. If youโ€™re planning to move to your next home, these trends can help you evaluate the right moment to exit. ๐Ÿ”ท ย For Buyers Use the tracker to studyย  price growth, transaction numbers, and Days on Market ย by neighborhood. Areas with strong growth and active sales mean more competition โ€” prepare early. Areas with slowing growth or longer market times may offer better negotiation opportunities. If youโ€™re currently renting, this tool helps you compare long-term value and build your purchase plan more strategically. ๐Ÿ“Œ ย Bottom Line The newly released Cook County Housing Market Tracker is more than a data tool โ€” itโ€™s a strategic roadmap.Whether youโ€™re a homeowner, a future buyer, or planning to sell, this is your chance to makeย  data-based decisions tailored to your neighborhood.

  • ๐Ÿกย Is an Extra $80 a Month Really Stopping You From Buying a Home?

    It Might Actually Be Your Opportunity. Recently, many buyers have been asking: โ€œIf my monthly housing payment is about $80 more than rent, should I delay buying?โ€ But experts agree:ย  an $80 difference is not a reason to walk away from homeownership. With the right preparation and strategy, this small gap can be managedโ€” and it may even be the perfect moment to buy. ๐Ÿ’ต ย Why Is โ€œ$80 a Monthโ€ Getting So Much Attention? Many buyers hesitate when projected monthly mortgage costs are slightly higher than rent.But research shows thatย  a difference of around $80/month isnโ€™t large enough to meaningfully reduce long-term buying power. In other words: โžคย A small monthly gap shouldnโ€™t be the reason you miss a major opportunity. And when you consider that homeowners build equity over timeโ€”while renters face yearly rent increasesโ€”today may actually be aย  better ย time to buy, not worse. ๐Ÿ“ ย Why This Matters Even More in Chicago & Illinois Just like the rest of the U.S., the Chicago/Illinois market is seeing more buyers comparing renting vs. owning.With rent and mortgage payments closer than before, even small payment differences become a deciding factor. But hereโ€™s the real point: What matters most is long-term equity, not short-term monthly differences. โœ”ย Chicago-area home prices have been steadily rising since the pandemicโ€”โ€ƒmeaning long-term owners have seen strong equity gains. โœ”ย Rent continues to trend upwardโ€”โ€ƒlocking in a fixed mortgageย  now ย protects you from future increases. โœ”ย Even if monthly costs are slightly higher,โ€ƒ tax benefits, customization/remodeling freedom, and equity growth ย can easily outweigh the $80 difference. ๐ŸŽฏ ย Strategic Advice for Buyers Who Are Hesitating 1. Revisit Your Budget If an $80 gap feels tight, you can adjust: Extend the loan term (30 โ†’ 35 years, where available) Increase your down payment Consider slightly smaller or more affordable properties Small adjustments can significantly reduce monthly costs. 2. Compare Renting vs. Buying Over Time If your rent rises every year, a fixed mortgageโ€”even if slightly higherโ€”can be cheaper over the next 3โ€“5 years. 3. Think in Long-Term Scenarios In Chicago/Illinois, studies show thatย  holding a home for 5+ years leads to strong equity growth. Delaying a purchase over an $80 difference could cost far more in the long run. 4. Use Expert Guidance Loan products, taxes, school districts, HOA fees, and maintenance all influence your true monthly cost. Work with a knowledgeable Realtor and loan officer to identify:โœ”ย yourย  real ย monthly affordabilityโœ”ย hidden savingsโœ”ย the best timing and strategy for your situation ๐Ÿš€ ย Now Is the Time to Act Pausing your home search because of a small monthly differenceโ€”like $80โ€”could mean missing a valuable opportunity. In markets like Chicago and Illinois, where demand remains stable and long-term equity potential is high, this may be the ideal moment to buy. With rent rising and home prices staying strong,that extra $80/month may be one of the smartest investments you can make.

  • ๐Ÿกย Are Builders Oversupplying Again? A Data-Driven Look at the Truth

    With new construction banners and job sites popping up around the city, many people are wondering: โ€œAre we heading into another oversupply problem?โ€ The data saysย  no ย โ€” in fact, it suggests builders areย  pulling back ย rather than pushing too hard. ๐Ÿ“‰ ย Building Permits Have Dropped for 8 Straight Months According to the latest data from the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB),ย  single-family building permits have declined for eight consecutive months . This is one of the clearest signs that builders areย  not ย repeating the โ€œbuild now, sell laterโ€ approach we saw before the 2008 crash. Instead, builders today are slowing construction, watching demand closely, and avoiding the kind of aggressive expansion that once led to a market collapse.In short:ย  weโ€™re not seeing the early signs of dangerous oversupply. ๐Ÿฆ ย Why This Moment Is Different From 2008 Before the 2008 housing crisis, builders kept ramping up construction even as demand was already falling.This mismatch led directly to price crashes nationwide. But todayโ€™s situation is the opposite: The U.S. has beenย  under-building for more than a decade Much of the current โ€œincreaseโ€ in new homes is simplyย  catching up to years of shortage New construction is rising from aย  low baseline , not an overheated one This means the uptick in visible construction is closer to aย  healthy correction , not a warning sign. ๐Ÿ“ ย Regional View: Similar Trend Across Most Markets While certain hot markets have more new construction activity, theย  nationwide trend remains clear : building permits are falling almost everywhere. Here inย  Chicago and across Illinois , the data doesย  not ย support a scenario where new builds would crash the market. Instead, buyers simply have more choices โ€” which can actually stabilize the market. ๐ŸŽฏ ย Strategic Takeaways for Sellers & Buyers ๐Ÿ”ถ ย For Sellers Even if youโ€™re hearing about more new construction, itโ€™s still aย  strong ย moment to sell. More options for buyers =ย  more potential eyes on your home Highlight your homeโ€™s strengths: location, size, updates, neighborhood character If youโ€™re thinking about moving into a newer home, this is a great moment toย  sell and upgrade at the same time ๐Ÿ”ท ย For Buyers This may be one of the most favorable windows weโ€™ve seen recently. More new homes + slow, steady supply growth =ย  better negotiation conditions Comparing new builds and existing homes across Chicago neighborhoods gives buyers much stronger leverage More choices = more opportunities to find theย  right ย home, not just theย  available ย home ๐Ÿค ย For Everyone More supply doesย  not ย automatically mean a price crash.In todayโ€™s environment, it signals that the market isย  moving toward balance after years of shortage . This is the time to pay attention โ€” and act strategically.

  • ๐Ÿ  The Rise of Renters: A Signal of Change in the U.S. Housing Market

    Across the U.S., a renter-driven housing trend is becoming increasingly clear. More people are choosing to rent instead of buy, creating new opportunities for both sellers and buyers.This shift is especially notable in the Chicago and Illinois markets , signaling that itโ€™s time to rethink traditional real estate strategies. Why Is America Turning โ€œRenter-Centricโ€? With the ongoing rise in homeownership costs, renting is becoming a more practical choice.High down payments, elevated mortgage rates, property taxes, and maintenance costs all make renting a less burdensome alternative. As more people delay home purchases, housing inventory remains tight and prices stay elevated โ€” subtly transforming the long-held belief that โ€œyou must own a home.โ€ Key Takeaways for the Chicago & Illinois Market Midwestern markets like Chicago typically enjoy stable housing supply, but post-pandemic migration and rising rental demand are reshaping local dynamics: Growing renter demand is increasing attention toward multifamily properties, condos, and townhomes . With low inventory turnover and widening gaps between home prices and rent rates, homeowners can benefit from โ€œrent-and-holdโ€ or flexible numbering strategies . Buyers can also gain by renting for now and timing their future purchase more strategically. Opportunities for Sellers and Buyers For Sellers: Instead of selling right away, consider renting your property for consistent cash flow while waiting for an ideal selling window. For Buyers: If purchasing now feels challenging, use the rental period to observe the market and prepare for a smart entry. For Both: The shift toward renter-driven housing isnโ€™t just about demand โ€” itโ€™s a fundamental reshaping of the market ecosystem. Agility and timing are everything. Act Now โ€” Change Brings Opportunity The rise of renters and the move toward a rental-focused market isnโ€™t a threat โ€” itโ€™s an opportunity.Those who adapt quickly to these shifts gain the upper hand. If you currently own a home, consider renting as an additional strategy rather than selling outright.If youโ€™re still renting, use this time to watch the market and plan your next move .

  • Understanding the VA Home Loan

    If youโ€™ve served in the military โ€” or your spouse has โ€” you may already qualify for one of the most powerful homebuying benefits in the U.S. :the VA Home Loan , which allows eligible service members and veterans to buy a home with $0 down payment. Yet, according to Veterans United, nearly 70% of eligible veterans arenโ€™t fully aware of this benefit โ€” meaning 7 out of 10 are missing out on something theyโ€™ve already earned. Hereโ€™s what every veteran and military family should know. ๐Ÿ  Key Advantages of the VA Home Loan For nearly 80 years, the VA Home Loan program has helped millions of veterans and active-duty service members achieve homeownership.The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs highlights three main benefits: 1๏ธโƒฃ No Down Payment Required Most conventional loans require 5โ€“20% down. With a VA loan, you can purchase a home with $0 down , making it easier to buy without years of saving. 2๏ธโƒฃ Lower Upfront Costs The VA limits what closing costs veterans can be charged, helping buyers keep more cash on hand for moving and maintenance. 3๏ธโƒฃ No PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) Conventional borrowers often pay PMI when their down payment is under 20%. VA loans completely waive PMI , lowering your monthly payment significantly. These benefits help veterans and their families achieve stable housing and long-term wealth โ€” without the usual financial barriers to homeownership. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ VA Loans During a Government Shutdown With recent shutdown news, some have wondered whether VA loans are paused.The good news: they are not. Veterans United confirms: โ€œThe impact of a government shutdown on VA home loans is very limited.Lenders can still request appraisals, obtain Certificates of Eligibility, and process funding fees.VA purchase and refinance loans continue to move forward.โ€ In other words, even during a government shutdown, VA loan applications and approvals remain active โ€” though some administrative steps may take slightly longer. ๐Ÿค The Importance of Working With the Right Agent and Lender Because VA loans follow specialized procedures, itโ€™s essential to work with a real estate agent and lender experienced in VA transactions. VA News advises: โ€œChoosing a military-friendly agent or broker who understands the VA process is key to a successful purchase.Strong communication between your agent and lender ensures a smooth closing.โ€ With the right professionals, every step โ€” from pre-approval to appraisal to closing โ€” moves faster and more efficiently. ๐Ÿ’ฌ Final Thoughts The VA Home Loan remains one of the most valuable financial benefits available to those who have served our country.Zero down payment, reduced closing costs, and no PMI are benefits few other loan programs can match. If youโ€™re a service member, veteran, or military spouse, take advantage of this opportunity to build long-term stability and home equity. For personalized guidance and local market expertise, reach out anytime โ€” your service deserves every benefit possible.

  • Real Estate Investing: Is It Time to Sell or Hold?

    Lately, many investors are asking themselves the same question: โ€œShould I sell my property now, or keep holding it a bit longer?โ€ Itโ€™s not just Baby Boomers thinking this way โ€” even investors who bought during the pandemic at historically low interest rates (below 3%) are reassessing their next steps. Inventory remains tight, mortgage rates are gradually easing, and buyers are returning to the market. It might seem like a great moment to sell and lock in profits โ€” but what happens after you sell?Is it wiser to move your capital into the stock market, or to keep your real estate assets and enjoy stable cash flow? ๐Ÿ’ต Why Some Financial Experts Say โ€œNow May Be a Good Time to Sellโ€ A viral TikTok video recently featured a financial advisor telling a client to sell two of their rental properties. The reasoning? โ€œIf managing real estate doesnโ€™t bring you joy, and you have no one to pass it on to, shifting your money into the stock market might offer higher returns.โ€ Some financial planners agree.Andrew Latham of SuperMoney.com notes, โ€œOver the long run, broad stock indexes like the S&P 500 have outperformed real estate.โ€ Historically, inflation-adjusted stock market returns average 7โ€“10% per year , while home price appreciation averages 3โ€“4% . For example, if a $500,000 rental generates $20,000 in annual net income after expenses, thatโ€™s only a 4% return . Even after accounting for capital gains taxes, selling in an up market can make financial sense. Real estate also requires more time and effort โ€” managing tenants, maintenance, taxes, and accounting โ€” while index funds and ETFs are passive, low-cost, and diversified investments that donโ€™t rely on local market conditions. ๐Ÿ  Why Many Experts Still Recommend Holding That said, plenty of professionals still argue that holding real estate offers unique advantages.According to Realtor.com , U.S. home prices rose 4.5% in 2024 and are projected to rise another 2.5% this year . While thatโ€™s slower growth, it still reflects a stable asset class. For retirees or long-term investors, real estate offers predictable, inflation-protected income .Latham adds, โ€œReal estate serves as an inflation hedge. Rental income functions like a personal pension, providing reliable cash flow over time.โ€ Selling, however, comes with capital gains taxes โ€” up to 20% federally , plus potential state taxes for high earners.Thatโ€™s why many investors choose to defer taxes through a 1031 exchange or continue holding properties to maximize rental income and long-term value. โš–๏ธ The Smart Approach: A Balanced Portfolio Stocks offer growth and liquidity but come with volatility.Real estate provides stability and income but is less liquid and requires management.The key is balance . Financial experts recommend diversifying rather than going all in on one side.For instance, if you own two rental properties, you might sell one to increase liquidity and reinvest in stocks or bonds, while holding the other for steady rental cash flow. Craig Kirsner of Kirsner Wealth Management cautions: โ€œIf you sell real estate and move into stocks, make sure your risk level still matches your comfort zone โ€” donโ€™t jump from the frying pan into the fire.โ€ ๐Ÿ’ก Final Thoughts Thereโ€™s no single right answer โ€” the decision depends on your goals.Ask yourself: What is the purpose of my investment right now? If you need liquidity, partial selling may make sense.If you value stable income and tax efficiency, long-term holding might be wiser. Either way, now is a great time to revisit your strategy and align it with your financial goals. If you own investment property in the Chicago or Illinois area, letโ€™s review your options together โ€” from timing your sale to building a balanced, resilient portfolio.
