Chicago’s busiest residential realtors pulled in more than a third of their $2.72 billion of sales in the past 12 months from three North Side postal codes that encompass the city’s most affluent areas.
The Lowe Group, the Laricy Team and ESW Chicago, the top three groups on TRD’s recent residential broker ranking, were also prominent in ZIP code 60614, which spans Park West, Ranch Triangle, Old Town and West DePaul as well as Lincoln Park, home to city’s two priciest properties. Of the 338 homes sold in the area, or 16 percent of the citywide tally, the three worked on 102 of them.
A Lincoln Park six-bedroom mansion at 1837 North Orchard Street—handled by Janet Owen of Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Chicago for the seller and Suzanne Gignilliat of @properties Christie’s International Real Estate for the buyer-–sold for $8.7 million on Feb 4. It was the priciest home this year until another Lincoln Park mansion sold for $10 million last week. Realtors for the latter, a private sale, haven’t been disclosed.
Leigh Marcus Properties, Ryan McKane and The Laricy Team led the charge in 60657, home to Lake View and Lake View East. Of the 207 homes sold there, or 10 percent of the city’s total, they sold 45. In 60610, which accounts for the Gold Coast and parts of Old Town, the top brokers were Lowe, Laricy and Alexandre Stoykov, who sold 43 of the 176 homes – 8 percent of the city’s total – that changed hands in the period
Other areas weren’t nearly as busy. Just one property sold in each of the ZIP codes 60631, 60636, 60652 and 60629, home to Edison Park, West Englewood, Ashburn and Chicago Lawn.
The ranking by ZIP codes includes only deals from the top 20 brokers, agents and groups and deals that closed in the 12 months ending on June 16, 2021. It excludes suburban deals. The source is publicly available figures from Midwest Real Estate Data and information submitted by firms. Deals include both buy and sell side.
