Inclement Weather in the Southwest Chicago Suburbs

There was tornado damage in a farther south Chicago suburb of Peotone last night. Several homes were damaged and there were also some injuries. Peotone is considered a more rural area and I had relatives that had a farm there, but it's a little too far out of my selling area.

I slept very well in my Orland Park home last night and was surprised to speak to a client who told me he didn't get any sleep last night because of the storm. I remember having trouble sleeping in my prior Oak Lawn home that I just closed on last week.

It was originally a ranch style home that had a 2nd story addition put on, turning it
into more of a cape cod or 1 1/2 story home. For some reason, I could always hear the wind and rain more in my Oak Lawn home than I can in my current split level home. Maybe it's because my 2nd story was so much higher than in my current home.

I don't know the reason, but I'm glad to have "weathered" my first bad storm in my new Orland Park home. I hope the new owners of my Oak Lawn home slept well last night.

Houses in Orland Park

Let's take a look at houses in Orland Park. Today there are 310 single family Orland Park homes for sale. This is a much larger amount of inventory than the last "house count" I did in February, when there were 230 homes on the market. And that is proof that we are not catching up on the inventory, in fact, we have more inventory than we did in the beginning of the year.

Houses start at $130,900 for a 2 bedroom, 1 bath ranch style home in unincorporated Orland Park that needs some work. The highest priced home is $4,500,000 for a 6 bedroom 3-story with 5 full baths and 3 powder rooms! It has been on the market with no price reduction yet for 198 days.

If you'd like to take advantage of today's low prices (although $4,500,000 doesn't sound too low) and low interest rates, you can set appointments right from the website. Or use the Quick Contact form to the left of this blog.

Momma's Got A New Pair of Shoes

The long-standing and top local Chicago Suburbs Real Estate website has a new look. It is now a sleeker design and color palette and the navigation is easier and cleaner. There is also a new custom MLS search offering much more data than before.

Below is the old look

Introducing the new template

The prior site had a built-in Wordpress blog and the new site has a seamless blog that reflects the same template style. The last three posts will be featured links on the home page.

Community pages are being created to be informative and easy to scroll through. You'll be able to view currently listed properties without having to do a search. The main community pages offer single family homes for sale and offer a link for attached properties (duplexes, condos, townhomes). As an example, view the Orland Park homes for sale page.

This website is at the top of Google for many pertinent southwest Chicago suburbs keywords. It might be fighting for first place with the big portals such as Yahoo's real estate pages, homes.com, etc. But it is usually the first local result you'll find in Google for certain keyword search terms.
