That’s why I live here. That’s why I work here. And that’s why I send my kids to school here. To keep you in-the-know with what’s happening in the neighborhood, I’ve enclosed an update on the Lincoln Park marketplace and a list of my favorite places to visit if you are in the area.

AskEmily for an early look
Lincoln Park Market Update Luxury continues to outperform the overall market in the city of Chicago, and the same is true for the Lincoln Park marketplace. In fact, the Lincoln Park luxury market ramped up in 2014 as interest rates remained low, market times declined, and single-family home prices posted significant gains. One factor driving the market is attractive mortgage rates, which hovered near historic lows throughout the year. Average market times continued to trend downward, pointing to strong buyer demand. Luxury home prices have also risen in the neighborhood, with the average single-family home selling for more than $2 million. It all points to the fact that the luxury market is hot, and getting hotter. I’m confident that 2015 will continue to be a great time to sell, so if you’re thinking about making a move, don’t hesitate to contact me for more information.

Emily’s Clients Love Her... ...JUST A FEW TESTIMONIALS “You are the best and I’ve told everyone who will listen that you are the only person to go to when buying or selling a house/ condo. You are so smart and I can’t thank you enough for everything. THANK YOU, Emily! One of your biggest fans.” “You are simply the best!” “Real simple, Emily is a doer. She gets things done, but even more remarkable is how she does it. She is not pushy, aggressive, or over the top. Instead, she is thoughtful, quiet, studious, pleasant and steady. And she also works hard. One example, after our neighbors were unable to sell their home for 6 months, we suggested they hire Emily. They did so on a Sunday at 2pm. At 4pm that same Sunday, Emily returned for two showings. One week later the house was under contract and closed shortly thereafter. We have worked with Emily on both the buyer and seller side with amazing — and quick — success. We have also referred her to several friends, neighbors, and colleagues and all share the same feedback: thank you for putting us in touch with Emily. There’s a reason she’s the number 1 broker in Chicago.” “Emily is a consummate professional and absolutely the best at what she does! It’s clear she is #1 here – she gets the job done, and always with energy and confidence. She is the best! “
