Last night I searched for 3 bedroom 2 bath condos with a garage space in the Lakeview area of Chicago and in the suburb of Evanston. My out-of-town buyers aren’t sure yet if they want to live in the city or the suburbs.
Such condos in Lakeview start around $375,000 and the majority under $400,000 are in high rises. Once you get above $400,000 you can find these condos in smaller, more intimate buildings. As you start to bump against $500,000 they start to include family rooms or a 2nd garage space.
In Evanston such condos start around $325,000. You only need to be in the mid $300,000s to start seeing units with a family room or 2nd garage space.
