359. An Opportunity of Olympic Proportions

If you’re like me, you LOVE looking at properties for sale and considering the possibility of finding a new place to call home. Well, it’s springtime in Barrington and the weekend open house activity is heating up. There’s a great property that’s open in South Barrington this afternoon that’s only a few years old, has that open floor plan that everyone loves and is also a “sneeze away” from I-90, O’Hare Airport and downtown Chicago.
This home is conveniently close to EVERYTHING, so why not come check it out from 1-4PM TODAY, Saturday, March 26th. Take a drive by and pop inside if you want to see more. My mom, Suzanne Luby, will be the host and I promise she doesn’t bite … unless you color on the walls ;).…

“What is the current Foreclosure rate in Barrington and how does that compare to the numbers nationally?”
It’s a great question, Mike. I’d like to say the numbers from MRED, our local MLS, are encouraging, but the data paints a different picture. The short sale and foreclosure statistics for Barrington are a real estate reality we have to know and face to help accelerate our local market recovery.…
