Streamwood Illinois Market Update by Price Range - July, August, September 2009

Diligently trying to keep both buyers and sellers educated on the local Streamwood Illinois Home Sales and housing market has been my goal with regular posts. This market update gives you the number of homes that have sold by price range so you get a feel for the current sales activity. Which is up just slightly and is encouraging news!

Is it the $8000 Tax Credit? Is it the lower interest rates? Or maybe just great values in the area?

For the Streamwood Illinois Home Sales from July to September 2009 you can clearly see that over 82% of the closed sales have been under the $200,000 price range. The lowest sales price was $79,500 and the highest sales price was $557,000.

Average Days on the Market for these sales is 169 and the listing to sales price is 5%.

How can you use this information if you are a buyer? The price range that you are thinking of purchasing in, is it one of the more active price areas of the market? It would be telling you that there are many other buyers also in your price range all looking for that 'deal.' I would recommend that you consider Streamwood a real value and a great place to get a home under $200,000 in the Northwest Suburbs.

How can this information help you if you are a seller? If you are planning on selling your home soon, you can see which price ranges are most active. Clearly the price range above $300,000 has been non-existent and rarely sales have occurred. You might have to plan accordingly for extra market time. As a seller, you have to be sure that your homes curb appeal and presentation is 'spot on'. in a market like this. Possibly some extra updates and staging might be required before you put your home on the market. Do you know what the average market time is for your price range?

Hey Lyn, what about foreclosures? Of those 66 total sales only 22 were foreclosures and 13 were short sales.

Water supply pipe information - Have you gotten this in the mail recently?

The letter arrives in the mail stating that "your water service line that brings fresh water into the home might need some maintenance. Have you considered what you would do if you were to suffer a burst or break in your water service line?"

Well first off if you received this letter don't panic! It's a completely unnecessary service says the Village of Schaumburg for most homeowners. You see, your water pipe going into your home has a useful life expectancy of 100 years. How old is your home? Well, subtract that and that's how many years you don't have to worry about it.

Now if you come home from work someday and see a geyser coming up from your front lawn, well, that's an immediate problem. Except in extreme cases, chances are this coverage is not necessary for you and your home.

Now another client in Streamwood received a similar letter from a different company that said her drinking water might be effected. Well, that would make anyone pay attention wouldn't it? According to the water dept. at the village your water line (in) and your sewer line (out) are not connected at all. Another scam making you feel that if you don't get your water tested you are drinking pond scum with your morning coffee. Yuck.

So these services seem to cost between $59.88 to $110.00 depending on which company you received the letter from. Call the village to verify that this service is not required. Keep your money in your own pocket!

Money saving good deed for me for me today. So I'll go back to watching the geyser in my neighbors yard!
