Search Chicago Open Houses Kinda, Sorta

by Jeff on November 15, 2007 · 0 comments

For my Chicago buyer clients who love to head out on their own and view Sunday open houses, I create a custom open house itinerary for them each week.  Criteria for one set of clients includes…

  • Neighborhoods of Lincoln Park, Lake View, east of Ashland.
  • Minimum of 2 Bedrooms, 2 bathrooms.
  • Condo or townhouse.
  • Walking distance to the ‘L’ but not on the ‘L’.
  • New construction or recent rehab.
  • Price range from $440,000 to $550,000.
  • No mid-rises or high-rises.
  • Parking for 1 car, garage preferred but outside space OK.
  • Outdoor deck space for grilling.
  • NO, repeat, NO garden units.

Joel Burslem of Future of Real Estate Marketing points me to a new website, OpenHouse.com, launched by Realogy.  A valiant attempt, but lacking in usability.  Check it out and try to incorporate my client’s requirements above.
