Chicago Area Housing Statistics, Courtesy of Crain's Chicago Business

Those who bought in 2004 (realize this is an average across all price ranges - with the majority of homes being in the lower price range) -- owe $23,348 more than their house is worth.

The Crain's PDF also goes into the average hours per week that a minimum wage worker would have to work for certain housing types....

Of course - when a home buyer uses our expert negotiation services -- we should be able to whack back those years!
