Our clients were living in Chicago and planning to start a family. One had grown up in Winnetka, so we began their North Shore home search in the New Trier district. With few homes available and properties selling above asking, we suggested looking farther north and weighing what a longer commute might get them.
We found them a home on an acre in Lake Forest that added about 20 minutes to their commute. They were thrilled with the house. We sold their Chicago apartment quickly and helped them shop for furniture for their new home using our access to trade pricing at several major retailers.
