Single-family homes dominate this week’s priciest resi sales
Four the 5 most expensive homes that sold in the city were single-family properties, and overall price tag fell sharply from prior week
Single-family homes and recently-built residential properties dominated this week’s list of priciest home sales in Chicago.
Four of the five properties that left the market were single-family homes, and three of the properties that made the list were built in the last four years.
The overall tally of $8.4 million for the bunch was half of last week’s $16.7 million total. That higher sum was boosted by the sale of Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward’s No. 9 Walton unit. But this week’s number was still above the early July figure.
For this week, two of the homes that sold were in Lakeview — one condo, one single-family — two were in Lincoln Park and the other was in North Center.
Price and property details were found on Redfin, from July 20 to 24.
