Having been a resident (and employee) in McHenry County for many years, I assure you it is a wonderful county in which to live. McHenry County offers both country and city living.
Having been "raised" in Chicago, I assure you it is a City of fun and cultural activities beyond compare. It's suburbs offer the same, in addition to a fantastic commuter system for those wishing to be employed "Downtown" and live the suburbs. For those who wish to live in the midst of the Chicago city life, there is a variety of living available - from loft to condo, from "Brownstone" to the neighborhood "Two-flat". Chicago offers the ultimate in new high-rise condos in and near the "Loop" and on Lake Michigan, offering panoramic views of the city and Navy Pier.
I agree that searching the web is helpful is real estate "hunting" and in curbing your curiosity about what is available in the market. At some point, it is even more helpful to have an agent work with you whether it be to assist you in finding your first home, or in selling your present dwelling.
This website is a "tool" to outreach to those searching the market. Hopefully, this will be the first step to our doing real estate business together. I look forward to hearing from you.
On this website, you will find "tips" on buying and selling a home more effectively.
Check out the Featured Listing and Office Listing sections, which offer detailed descriptions and photos of properties presently on the market. I am available to show these properties to you, or to give you more information on their status. Midwest Real Estate Data ("MRED"), formerly known as the Multiple Listing Service ("MLS") is available for searching by cities and requirement, Illinois only. If you are searching for a property, and have difficulty or any questions, feel free to contact me. Email your question, and it will be answered as quickly as possible. Prudential First Realty has an out-of-state Relocation Program, please contact me for more information.
If you would like a map of your area automatically emailed to you (showing homes recently sold and presently for sale), click on the Market Snapshot section of this website and review the example. By filling out the MARKET SNAPSHOT, you will receive your information. You may also SEARCH THE MRED BY MLS NUMBER. Please be sure it is the accurate MLS number, and not another number assigned to a picture of a home you may see in an advertisement, etc. If you have any questions on the status of an MLS number, let me know. I'd be glad to forward the information to you.
For a more accurate idea of what your home is worth in today's market, a personal Market Analysis would be required. Should you be interested in a Complimentary Market Analysis (CMA), please call or email your request: Request a CMA
