Attention Northbrook Investors


This house is a bank owned foreclosure. They just dropped the price $30K. There are some structural issues with a crack. Nice living space and beautiful yard. Fix it up and sell it to a young family who wants excellent schools. Great location! Call Caroline for a preview.

oops!

Hazards of the work place. My new client whom I met for the first time didn't stop behind me at the railroad crossing. Fender bender. I am Thankful on this week of Thanksgiving nobody was injured and we proceeded to look at houses. Has that ever happened to you?

Caroline wins the Turkey Award!

I won the First Annual Turkey Award at Chicago's District ZipRealty office today. I submitted a story about my longest short sale transaction that closed on Thursday last week after 11 long months of efforts. I calculated about 4000+ emails at least. This award is well deserved as it has certainly been a turkey of a transaction. Glad it's done. Best wishes to my client in their new home!
